Grandpa S.

They brought home a little gift for me
Something they found in your drawer
A little wallet with your license and a photo of me
From way back in 2015

Dad and mom stayed in the room you slept in
But I know you never really felt at home
I wished you lived right by us too
But I know it would have been hard for us both

Grandpa I wish you were here still
It's selfish because I know you're happier now
But sometimes you were the only person I loved
Or maybe the only person who loved me too

I don't know how you did it
Living through all those years with your sickness
You can't explain everything you'd been through
But I get a lump in my throat when I think of you

I'm glad you're not on earth anymore
It's never where you wanted to be
For my whole life you were ready to go
But now that just makes me miss you more
