I Was Standing Right Beside You! ! Poem by Becky Ginn

How is it i can scream but you dont hear?
At first i didnt understand
But now the reasons all too clear

And you go on with your life saddened but without a care
I am standing right beside you
but all you see is air

My desperation to communicate goes unnoticed
But of course you fail to see
You have no memories no pictures to remind you of the grandpa long since dead, that grandpa that used to be me

My anger at you has faded
My reason to stay is gone, you are the last thing i see in this world before i disappear once again
I was standing right beside you
You felt nothing, Heard nothing for you couldnt care
I was standing right beside you
But all you allowed yourself to see was air.
