I Miss Him Too
5-9-15
Today marks six years since my granddad died,
And though we weren’t so close, It’s you I see
Holding back your tears now, for then you cried,
For time has moved and ‘llowed you time to grieve.
Though grieving comes, I know the pain – it stays –
Growing stronger as you remember him
And all you’ve lost since that horrific day,
I know some days it hurts for you to grin
And bear it to save us the pain of you
Collapsing, as I know you feel you could.
For there’s always more that one needs to do,
And more to take our time, as true it should.
Remember, though I seem just to not feel,
I miss him too and love you a great deal.
