Grandpa

I sit here thinking about the good ol' times
Thinking about when you would tell me a story
You would tell me the greatness in your life
Then I forget you are gone
I think about going to the farm and see you laying there
Laying there relaxing, ready to tell me more
But then I realise you are gone, never to return.
My heart breaks.
You made me smile with your stories
You had the best ones always
I would just sit there for hours listening
Even if you repeated yourself...I loved it.
I go to the farm expecting to see you
Expecting you to be chopping some wood
Checking the animals
Or just walking, waiting for me to come
Everytime I think of you, I cry
I could have known you so much better
But I expected you to always be there
I never thought you wouldn't be there
Dearest Grandpa,
In your memory I will always find joy
In your stories I will always find comfort
In you I will always find happiness
