Just a slight memoir for my grandpa....A Poem by OkieWonKenokiewritten for my grandpa who was much of a fatherly figure for me.He was pretty awesome and quite funny.You may be gone from this world, But you’re alive in our minds. We never thought this would happen. Things happen for many reasons. Maybe one day we’ll meet up again. I hope you were proud of me. You’re with me wherever I go, Even if it seems like you’re not. I miss you, But I’d never ask for you to be back. You were in too much pain It’d just be selfish to want that. My last words to you were “I love you”. You helped me feel better Just as I liked being around you. You were so cheerful. I would love to see you again, Even if it was for only a couple minutes. I wish you’d be here to see me grow up, But really you’re watching over me. You’re who I think of when things get rough, No matter what’s wrong I know you’re right by my side. I’m a beautiful young girl, Even as you’d tell me You were hurting every day, That we all felt bad. You’d accidentally hurt yourself, So we had to help bandage you up and play doctor. We love you And miss you. I’m happy you’re out of pain, Even though we won’t see each other again for awhile. Remember when I was younger? You were so awesome! I can’t even begin to explain it. We had much fun together. You were such a cool grandpa. We had our times of disagreement, But you still loved me no matter what. Just as I still loved you. My mind is frozen in time, But my heart has kept you there. My thoughts think what I did wrong. You weren’t home when it happened. Now you’re not here for me To have some company or have comedy in my life. Although, you really shouldn’t have cussed like a sailor, But we all loved ya. You always told me to succeed. Now that you’re gone, I’m going to. No matter what it takes. I’m going to make you and everyone proud, Even after all my mistakes I’ve done. © 2010 OkieWonKenokieAuthor's Note
