and there's nothing worth running for
Hi my name is Grace and I like to read, write + fashion/graphic design and I abhor veggies + twitbuggers. I'm from EPPS/SHPS/NYGH/ISB (yes, I know, extensive) and I take Spanish as a third language! I really love Broadway *and* Taylor Swift. And random stuff like the soundtrack of the movie Once.

Anna

When the world is falling
And grief reigns
Is it okay to laugh
And smile?

When the clouds open
And the storm starts
Is it okay to laugh
And smile?

When grief comes
And knocks on your door
Must I be swallowed
by darkness?

God, open up my mind
Help me see the light
When a death is announced
Is it okay to try and live?

I pray that she finds her way
To Your garden, God
That we may join her some day
In Your paradise

But for now we must remain
So in our hearts she'll stay
Please, God, show me the way
Through the storm to the rainbow

When we are here
And she is there-
Is it okay to laugh
And smile?

My brain's not working, but I do hope that somewhere, God hears my poem. My baby cousin Anna Sim died this morning when I was on the school bus. She had an extra chromosome. (If I'm not wrong, it's #13- very rare.) Most babies with her condition don't last 2.5 days, but with God's grace she lived to see about 6.5 days. Thank you, God.

Please pray for Anna. I didn't get the chance to see her when she was a baby, let alone watch her grow up like I saw my other cousins do. I just wish that I could have been there. I know she was a brilliant and strong girl to have made it through so long.

And now I'm confused... When something so hard as death hits you, all the books and movies can tell you that the expected thing to do is cry and be sad. But is that the right thing? Is it a crime if somebody says something funny and you laugh?

I'll come running,
