Eternal memory(To my Grandfather)

This morning,
Death sang its lullaby to you, Grandfather.
This morning,
Your heart stopped beating, and you're gone, forever...

Today, me and Mom were coming to see you.
I was told you were finally feeling better,
and I thought it would do you good,
to see your niece and your daughter.

I wonder
Why couldn't you wait for a while,
at least until I came over,
and allow me to see for one last time your peacefull smile,
and tell you all about my future plans,
and ask for your wise advice...

Instead, I walked into a house
full of pain and tears...
Do you know how many people you left
crying and wishing you weren't dead?

When I saw your face,
I realized you were at peace.
I can only imagine how you felt,
the last few months,
while you were on the edge of death,
tormented by the doctors and the hospitals.

I kissed your face, your lifeless body,
so cold, so distant,
and I realized you were already away,
and you won't come back, you won't...

Dear Grandfather
I promise I'll try to accept the fact you're gone forever,
and that I won't get to see your face,
only because I know that now you're at a better place...

I'm just really sorry,
I didn't get to say goodbye,
before you went away.

Hope you'll forgive me one day...
You know, you'll always stay,
Here, in my eternal memory...
Forever...
Rest In Peace, my dearest Grandfather.

P.S.I love you...
I miss you already,
and I will miss you forever...
R.I.P dear Grandfather...

My Grandfather passed away on 19.10.08
I haven't seen him since July.
I was gonna go and see him that day
But he couldn't wait.I wish I went there earlier.
Hope he'll forgive me for not saying goodbye...
