R.i.p

I listen to his laugh
his pictures in my mind
i can almost feel his touch
as if hes right by my side

i remember his voice
i wish he were here
and i try to forget
and shed none of my tears

my knees hit the floor
when they told me hes dead
i couldnt beleive it
ide only just left

my heart was broken
in more then just two
nd i never got to say to him
i love you

i walked dwn the road
with the army that came
nd stood in the church
as they prayed to his name

i tried to stay strong
but my body just broke
nd i sobbed nd i coughed
and i thought i might choke

we went to go see him
his body was cold
it wasnt him layin there
he looked so old

the thing that made it him
was all drained out
nd i wish he might move
or scream or shout

and i think of his children
and i feel so sad
and i kno that he loved me
and i shouldnt feel bad

but i would love to here him nag me
or have another hug
or just see him layin around
or nappin all nice and snug

he died so very quicky
a heart attack took his life
he left behind his children
me my mum and his wife

he left behind a family
that loved him
more then any words can explain
and his memory will bring so much happiness and just a little pain

R.I.P M.R best godfather ever , u were lved so much and will be missed by so many people for so long !! xx
