I love my great grandma, i wrote this for her specifically.

GREAT GRANDMA
Oh my great grandmother, how much i love you.
I appreciate your wisdom,
I respect your stories,
I adore the fact that you are still alive to tell me everything.
Do not worry about your other great grandchildren, the ones that pretend you are not in the room with them, they are nothing but fools for not noticing how much love you still have to give.
Your gray, thin hair leaves an incomparable smell, something that will always remind me of you, just like your house.
Oh, my great grandmother, how much I respect you.
You have gone through so much, I would not be able to handle all you did,
I hate the fact that I was a fool for not noticing you when I was younger, I was a fool for not wanting to go to your house, I was an imbecile for thinking badly of you because of aunts and uncles that lived with you.
I wish I could have found out sooner about the precious gem you are,
Even with your wrinkles, even with all the tears, even with so little attention being given to you.
I love you.
Please remember this.
You will never be forgotten by me, even with my bad memory.
I promise.
