1. Grandma’s Room and Trains in the Distance

I am listening deeply for you
in the cracks and crevices of this room.
Your daily tasks and quiet breaths, 
I took those songs for granted. 
But, can you hear me now? 
I am sitting with the sounds
of all the words I should have said and 
all the things you did
to fill this space.

When I grow up
I want to be an old lady
with lots of buttons. 
I want to solve problems with
needle and thread.
When I grow up
I want to find 
your face in mine.
I want the lines of your eyes
beside mine. 

It’s night; you called my name.
I stood and faced your pain. 
I stood and felt shame, 
as you said my name 
followed by the phrase,
“Proud of you.”

But am I worthy now
to carry on your mouth?
With time will I learn to see
all of you that lives in me?
