Grandpa

I wish i could have met you,
But you died before i was born,
I have seen pictures of you,
And my mother was torn

i know you are watching,
Although i don't say it out loud,
And i bet you are hoping,
That i will make everyone proud

Honestly i don't think i will,
I am a failure,
And I'm just another bill,
And i apologize for failing

I wish you could be here,
Although i know you are,
Although I'm full of fear,
But i bet you are not far

You are my angel,
When i want to die,
And I'm ready to dangle.
And that is not a lie

There are angels among us,
Although we don't see,
They are in the dust,
Where we can not be

You have fought for us,
As well as our country,
you put your life up,
To keep us free

Dedicated to my grandfather Paul Franklin Beachey
