Paradox


I am a paradox

I am a granddaughter but I don't have a grandmother

She's gone but she never leaves us

The bonds of family can never be broken but we can be broken

Death cannot separate us from our family but death can tear us apart from our family

I am a paradox

I am whole but I have never been more broken
