Missing You
How do you process when all is a blur?
How can I take in the fact that you're no longer there?
Yesterday was normal. Well, as far as normal goes.
What will tomorrow bring? Nobody knows!
Not so long ago, I thought I knew my path ahead.
Now everything has changed and it has vanished instead!
I was a carer. My mind was focused and clear.
Though things were tough, we brought each other cheer.
You took me in when I was young with new beginnings no end.
Little did I realise that in you I'd gain the best of friends.
We were special to each other and we'd pick no other way
Than to work together to add meaning to each day.
Though I feel torn to pieces because death tore us apart
Remembering your love soothes the wounds of my heart.
My dear Nan and Grandad, precious memories you fill.
I deeply miss you both and I always will.
