Why...?

Why?
My heart has never felt so much pain
As each minute passes
I sit and wonder why
Why have you been taken so soon?
I have a special picture
It holds your beautiful face while we must be apart
Wondering why you couldn't be a part of my future
Uncontrollable tears stream down my face
While my heart starts to race
I breathe rapidly
Waiting for the news of your death
I clutch your sweet scented pillow to my face
Wafting in your familiar scent
Music plays softly from my stereo
Lyrics swarm in my head that remind me of you
Millions of questions run through my mind
I send them all to God
Asking him a simple “why?”

This piece is about the feelings I felt when my grandmother had her stroke. I have lived with her for seven years and back then it had only been three. I was ten and didn't know what to feel. So this basically sums it up. Enjoy! :)
