i remember him laughing
every time i eat apples
he loved the green ones
i cant stop eating them
for that's a strong memory
i can still see him with me
while we ate and talked
about anything at all
many times i wept for him
although he wasn't well
cancer was eating his brain
death was just a relief
memories are slowly fading
i dream about him sometimes
they do hurt deep inside
but i dont want to leave him
Author notes
in memory of Alberto Heler, my grandfather who died.
i cant stop eating green apples, for i remember eating those with him, and i can really still feel like he's by my side when i eat them.
