From Light to Dark

by LilMzzBeauty   Nov 14, 2006


You were always the first person i would see in the mornings
I would wake up to u saying,
"Wake up beautiful, Wake up"
I would open my eyes and see yours

All my life i never saw you sick
Only once and it was just the flu
Then in the mere three days
Cancer flew through your body and
ended the days of your life
I stand there crying while looking at the image that is now stuck in my head

The day of your viewing
I stand there next to your body crying
Now i'm the one telling you to,
"Wake up Grandpa, Wake up."
Even when i scream at you to wake up, you won't do it
I did it for you, why wont you do it for me??????

Now that your funeral has pasted
i walk around all day thinking
of all the things your going to miss,
My Sweet 16, High school graduation, The day i get married,
or when i become a parent as great as you were

But after all that, what hurts the most is the fact that i will never see you again.

I miss You Grandpa

    Thats the thing about death and life its cycle can't have one without the other. But you helped shape your grandad and he you. Bet if he can look down from above he would smile knowing that part of him rubbed off on you and one day that will be passed on to your kids too

    Very sad story thanks for sharing it
