Becoming my own man and GrievingTeens.

Cherish the Memories.
The thing I hated to know and had to deal with, finally approached me. It was roughly 5:45am, I had a missed call, weird so early. It was someone I hadn’t spoke to in a while, I was nervous to call back I didn’t want to accept the fact that she called. I picked up my phone and called, I could tell something was wrong, sounded like she had been crying. She told me it wasn’t good and I need to come quick. I dropped my phone and ran to my mom in a panic with tears rolling down my face, she woke up panicking, startled. We ran out the door and to the car, running stop signs and lights going as fast as we could. But we were late, 4 minutes too late. She’s standing there looking at me and looked back at the bed, I looked and immediately started crying my eyes out. I couldn’t walk, couldn’t move, couldn’t do anything, but cry. You were dead. I thought it was a nightmare gripping your arm that was still so warm. I looked at you and asked why? Why so soon? Now is not the time!! I couldn’t do anything didn’t wanna talk about it. I just knew you were looking down on me. I would have dreams of you saying you are proud of the young man I’m becoming and that you loved me and in time everything will be okay! At that moment I knew I had to push and strive to do better and make a man out of myself for you! I had obstacles in the way, yes they got the best of me and they had me for a while, I knew you weren’t happy. I changed got my act together started to do better! And I became the young man you wanted me to be!
I Love You Grandma.
