Dearest Grandad,

As I sit here and think about you

The way you laughed

The way you joked

When I was sleeping

The way you tickled, pinched and poked

As I look at all the pictures

And lose all control over my tears

I'm reminded of all the wonderful times

We've shared over the years

All the times we sat at the kitchen table

Talking about lifes ebbs and flows

We talk about how when your well

We'd go hunting deer with bows

After hours of flipping trough the memories

I think about how it wasn't fair,

The way God took you from me

The enfezema, the cancer, you tell me, where does it end?

But the way you left this world, I can never defend

As I put away the pictures, my eyes are very wet

As I try to get a hold of myself,

I already start to forget

But if theres one thing about you

I will always remember

It's your loving Heart

So gentle and tender.

I love you Grandad! I'll see you soon!

	i hate 2 say that i know what ur going through cause everyone has different thoughts and different fazes they go through. but i understand where ur comein from. not long ago, my grandma died, and 2 this day i never cry, i just blame my-self. which is not a good thing 2 do. that cancer seems 2 get everyone around u, and its scary at times. ur gonna miss him thats natural, but deppylegs is right. he'll be proud of u.
