To you, to my grandfather.


I know we are all feeling a little bit sad,
That we've lost our Grandpa, our friend and our dad
Together we have cried an ocean of tears
As we feel so empty and hold many fears

I write this for you, Granddad, as the tears roll down my face,
A part of me just died tonight a part I can't replace.
They called us to your bedside it was time for you to fly,
How do you fit a lifetime into a five minute goodbye?

Death may have taken your body but it did not take you
The love that we share even death can’t get through.

You have left so many happy thoughts in my heart,
I am still finding it hard to believe we are now apart,
If I were given one wish what would it be,
It would be for you to be here for one more day with your family,
I am heart broken that you are no longer here,
When I think of you, I will always shed a tear,
People tell me in time the pain will stop,
But I will always miss the times I had with my dearest Pop.
