My
grandfather died the morning after thanksgiving, he wanted all
the family to be together one last time i
guess. he'd been sick for 6 years. He held on for
awhile, but his sickness and disease made him sicker and sicker
as the months go by. This is a poem i wrote for him, i read it at
the funeral that was held today. I miss him and love him with all
my heart. <3
The world isn't the same,
since the day the angels came.
Heaven has received another angel. The night sky, another star.
His life has become a loving memory, I know he will never be too far.
Together we have all cried an ocean of tears,
as we feel so empty and hold many fears.
But Granddad would want us to know he's in a good place,
and that hes watching us all with a smile on his face.
I know I'm not perfect, I never will be,
but I hope he's up there, and he's proud of me.
He changed who I am today,
A debt I can never repay.
He has played a special part.
Memories, I will treasure and keep close to my heart.
Because of the disease he could not defeat,
his life is now, sadly, complete.
He had to let go, he was holding on for so long.
There's not a day I don't think of him and how he was so strong.
To each one of us, he has loved and cared.
We're all so thankfull for the good times we shared.
I love and miss him with all my heart,
but as long as I have our loving memories, we will never be far apart.
He really was one in a million, a cut above the rest.
All that knew him would agree, he simply was the best.
Although he is gone, we will always be together,
And his spirit will live on each one of us, forever.
As times passes, our tears will dry, our hearts will mend
but our love for him will never
end.
R.I.P. Granddad, 11/26/2010. <3
so this isn't a pretty quote but i just wanted to say that last night, i told him how i felt, and even though i knew there wasn't a chance with him, and he just told me who he liked and it wasn't me, i still told him and i feel soo glad to get that off my chest, and he said its best for us to just be friends and for some reason i was completely fine with it, i just hope he knows that im still madly inlove with him, i hope things won't be akward at the halloween party tonight.. ]: <3
