First Edit: No Such Things as Happy Endings

Something rather sad going on here. I see it as a mother gone through chemo, and probably already passed away when kissed. 

No Such Things as Happy Endings

Broken eyes finally fixed, < don't understand. did they put some glasses on?
I was actually greeting death
when I kissed you goodbye last night.
Your cheek reeked of poisonous medicine,
head bald-
you used to tell me how dad first noticed
you because of your curly hair. < all of these lines are good.

When I slept the next morning, the hidden sun < i understand probably have been awake all night beside loved one, or unable to sleep thinking of that one.
became my grandmother, drinking her third beer < transpiring into an odd dream after sleep finally comes
from a porcelain mug. The hazy sky
the grandfather I never knew, distant
like what he stole from you. < I think this is the genetics passed down and thus he is being blamed for the death. 

If I'm anywhere near correct, or even if not, the second stanza could throw a lot of people off; it definitely threw me until I considered possibilities.

Some punctuation changes could help as well, but I'd worry about that after the clarity. I personally feel a poem can be as vague as you like until the end, when it must tie together and 'click' for the reader; at least potentially click after a few reads. but this still feels difficult to pull the true story from.

If you're not sure how to clarify it, you could just tell me the intended image, and I could help you with some polishing.
