The day you left,
You took a part of me with you.
I cried for hours,
The moment I entered I already knew.
The look on everyone's face,
I knew I had missed my chance.
To say goodbye properly,
So I sat, cried in a trance.
You went so cold,
That's when I knew it was real.
Coming to the realisation that,
I had to restart my time to heal.
Time stood still in that moment,
I couldn't feel anything, I was frozen.
With tears streaming down my face,
I ask myself why you were chosen.
Another life took way to soon,
You fought so hard but you had to let go.
I will miss you so much,
And I just wanted you to know.
Another angel to watch over me at night,
To guide me through the darkest days.
To steer me through the hardest times,
To show me the way through the world's maze.
Thank you for all the memories,
And the time you spent with me.
Making me smile, laugh and live,
I love you Grandad, and now you're free.
