My Guardian Angel

My Guardian Angel

A Poem by Ashley Elizabeth
"

Written in memory of my Grandfather 61836-91700 ; I love and miss you so much.

"

When all the flowers

Have begun to wilt

I realize that it is that

Time of year again

When all of the pain and heartache

Comes back to me

 

I think back to that day

That warm day in September

When you were swept away

From me and our family

And you floated up to join

Your king, the Lord God

 

I was only 7 at the time

And I didn’t fully understand

I’m 18 now, and quite frankly,

I still don’t understand

Why did this have to happen to you?

You were my savior

 

You told me that

You would never leave my side

Even though you knew

That it couldn’t be true

I cried for days

I thought I had done

Something wrong

But what could I have done?

 

I was your princess

But I still have a question

Why did you leave me?

When I was so young?

Now in the hard times

I feel like I’m facing them alone.

Without you, there is no comfort

 

Well now, I understand

You couldn’t fight anymore

The truth is you were tired

Tired of fighting a losing battle of

Endless pain

I definitely would not want that for you

I understand that I was never at fault

And now I know that

You will never leave my side because

You are

My guardian Angel.
