DEATH Poem: forever 29, by Rain Crockett

at 29 she had
children who loved her
unconditionally
a mother who’d do
anything for her
and a sister who’d kill for her

at 29 she had
nieces who were
inspired by her
and nephews who
looked up to her

at 29 she had
a family who
awaited her recovery

and at 29
she took her
last breath

even though
her death was
incredibly tragic
there’s a lot of things
you can do in
29 years

at 29
you can live a carefree life
you can dance without displacing a hip
you can get married 3 times over
you can bleach your hair
without the youngins saying
you’re going through a midlife crisis

she’ll forever be in my heart
she’ll forever be 29
