For My Nonna
Dedicated my Nonna Maria, 94 years old
How lucky was that I should fall upon your lap?
How amazing you are too
If I had my way
Every day I'd always choose you
You didn't have to look
You didn't have to save me
I love you my Nonna
Ti voglio bene.
Right or wrong
Please stand strong,
because in spite of my age
I'm still your baby
I love you the world
My Nonna
Ti voglio bene.
Key Words:
Nonna - Grandma In Italian
Ti voglio bene - The way you say I love you to members of your family in Italian. NOT to be confused with Ti amo which also means I love you, but Ti amo should be used to express romantic love to someone.

After a long day in the department, Emily dropped her worn and tired dark leather bag on the counter before navigating through the small and disordered kitchen to grab a cold beer from a contrarily empty fridge. She hadn't had a chance to unpack since moving from Newcastle to Glasgow, let alone shop for sustenance, except for cold brews naturally.
