SMILE AND CRY
A Grief Poem

By V. Villaseñor

I looked out the window
And thought about you

I thought if you were here
What would we do?

Hug and laugh
Smile and cry

Remember and think
Close our eyes and sigh

You'd be so close
And I'd get to feel

Warmth in my bones
Instead of that chill

That chill from knowing
It will be awhile until I see

Your smiling face
Then forever we'd be

Together again
For eternity

As I look out the window
It's you I want to see

Under a tree
Smiling back at me

A whisper from my lips
I love you marmé
