She's my second mother , one of the strongest woman I have ever met. since I was just a toddler she never let me go to the wrong way of life. All of the golden advices that she said was mark down to my mind. But life always has an end, even if we dont like it but it is our destiny. Even if it is hard to accept the fact that one day our love ones will leave us.
My Grandma just pass away , I have been the witnessed of her deteriorating body, She was diagnosed to have a liquid in her lungs making it difficult for her to breath.
She was confined to a hospital and we thought that it would turn out to be okay. The doctor ask permission to make a hole under here armpit for the liquid to be remove. after the operation her body continues to deteriorate.
Its hard to see her suffer but we cant do anything, we continued to buy medication for her to survive. But her body gave up, it might be hard to accept but we know shes in the good hand now.
As a tribute for my lola i made a poem and i tried to make her a portrait. hope you like it lola.
THIS POEM IS FOR HER
LOLA
You were my second mother , And one of the best
woman I have ever met , strong loving and kind
Grandmother , every kid would love to have in life
I am one of the witnessed of the things you've done
Things we can be proud of as your grandchildren
for years that we've been celebrating together
Christmas and New Years that we've encountered a lot
But things change , always for good but sometimes for worse
we all expect but wasn't ready to accept
the days that your body wont let you take control
We might be smiling, for you to see were happy
But inside , A voice is crying for miracles.
You don't want but , the hospital was your new home
The doctors gave medication but you resist
No , your body did resist ,it knows its about time
time to rest and quit for the life's competition
I saw mamas eyes were cloudy , holding that tube
connected to your lungs that will help you breath
one , two , three and four numbers I don't want to hear
It makes that feeling that something terrible , will
And yes it happen , message from mama saying
things , In my whole life I cant , and never accept
But its a cycle that everybody needs to accept
Accept the fact that life itself will become death
But death isn't the end for you , for there is God
Waiting for your return , reuniting with his child
that he once let to taste the life of men.
Yet you will always be in our hearts , lola
I also made her a portrait it might not be that good due to some negative emotion , but I guess I did my best :)
First i made a sketch of the shape of her face
then I layered it with a flesh colored colorpencil
then I just continue to color until i was quite sure its done :)
For all steemians we should love and take care our family especially the elders , we would not know how or when will they leave , as long as they are healthy lets spend time with them before its too late :)
I hope lola will be happy together with our God , may her soul will rest in peace ,
GOOD DAY EVERYONE AND THANK YOU :)
WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU LOLA YOU WILL ALWAYS BE ON OUR HEARTS :)
