I never thought I will say this but I miss you
I couldn’t wait another day once you were gone 
My whole world went down 
You were so sweet like honey loving and kind 
But grandma I wish you was still alive 
Most days I wish I would have died
I wish it was me who took your spot 
I know you are in a better place 
That’s peaceful and warm
Just thinking about it 
I’m all torn
I love you my Grandma
Some one that’s my everything and my all 
When it rains, I know that some of your tears will falls 
I never thought I will lose you
But I know you are still here with me 
That’s why I will never fear 
Grandma, Grandma you’re my heart 
I wish I can bring you back
Without you it’s breaking me apart
You always used to tell me keep your head up and always pray
I wish you would have stayed here on earth it’s no one like you that could ever take your place
On the day you left me I was lost 
I didn’t say good-bye, before I knew it, they said you were gone 
Please come back to me 
You not being here is making me weak
I know your spirit is flowing over me and within me 
To hold 
To protect 
I know you never left me 
Even if I can’t see you 
I know you will always be here with me
I miss you
