I may not remember the day you left us...
And though it tears me up inside,
I do remember our laughter, love and trust,
That in each other, we could always confide.
You gave me strength within myself,
Someone I could talk to and who would understand,
Always there to help,
As I reached for your hand.
It is just not the same,
Even though you are still protecting me,
You were there when I didn't even know my own name...
Certain things were just meant to be.
Coming so close to meeting again,
But it was not my time,
I think of it every now and then,
Wondering why it had to be your time.
Although we are not together now,
I know you have been here for me,
You are the why and how,
I believe...that is why I can still be.
I can feel you looking down,
You are so proud, yet thankful,
It makes me feel love all around,
I too...am very thankful.
Now I know there is a way,
To be strong...and believe,
That tomorrow is a new day,
You taught me that...to believe.
Special times I will always remember,
Yet...the hardest I have forgotten,
It is you I remember,
May you rest at peace and know...you will never be forgotten.
I love you grampa.
Love, Peanut
