Poem
One day my grandad slipped away,
His face sunk into a waxy, pale grey,
With a sudden stillness and a wave of your hand,
You have ventured off into an undiscovered land,
If only I could go back to when life was a breeze,
Or to say goodbye with that one final squeeze,
All I want is to hug you tight,
I know you tried so hard to stay and fight,
If only I could hear your voice once more,
Or to see your face, just like before,
The connections I have help me to grieve,
I never knew how much damage your death could leave.

You fell into your awaiting deep sleep,
Forever and a day of counting sheep,
In tears I saw you sinking, I watched you fade away,
My heart was almost broken, you fought so hard to stay,
Now we gather every Sunday to comfort his son,
For the parents he has been left with is not one, but none,
Looking ahead at your empty armchair,
I feel your presence, as if you’re there,
But I know my grandad is not truly gone,
Because his legacy remains, so he can live on,
The connections I have help fill that deep void,
So many good times death has destroyed.

The night sky has gained another star,
It comforts me that you are not too far,
Tears ran down my face that day,
All of the dormant emotions I had left at bay,
It wasn’t your time to die,
But now you’re an angel up in the sky,
The memories of you, no one can erase,
My heart was broken that night, a love I can’t replace,
I know you were so very afraid,
Greeting us one last time ‘Hello my babe’,
The connections I have make me feel pride,
This was the sad part, shall we hear the happier side?

With help of my family the pain might fade away,
I miss you more and more each and everyday,
Like when I came around on Friday after school,
Or the days where we would occasionally call,
I’m sorry you will never get to meet my new baby cousin,
I know you were here to witness the arrival of the other two-dozen,
If it be a boy then Alf shall it be named,
The love I still bare for you can never be explained,
The connections I have make me feel at ease,
I only dreamt to of had that one final squeeze,
Have fun on your jollies, until we meet again,
Rest in peace my angel, my love will never end.
