I Am Here

by Macey Cervenka

to my grandparents who passed away

I know you tear every night

because I am not there.

But I lay beside you

when you do not know.

When you wake in the mornings

I am the sun shining brightly

through your window.

As you watch I am the clouds

gathering in the foggy grey sky.

While it rains

I am the million dancing raindrops

that fall from the heavens.

At night, I am the moon, I am the stars

watching you with love,

I am here.
