Scared Is Not the End

Scared is not the end

Although I am scared 
You must be terrified 
Although I do cry
You must tremble 
Although it is a risk 
You will take it
Although it is hard 
It is harder on you
Although I don’t want you to
You need to to make it right 
Life is a hard life 
And you’ve had it difficult 
Love is hard to get 
And you’ve got it all around you 
And although we can not see you now
You’re memory is all we have 
Of happy times we spent together 
And grandkids you met
I no you read this poem
So many times before 
But now the ending is different 
As it was before 
And we all thank you for the extra time 
We all spend together 
And now we look up at the stars at night 
To all say good night together 
Sweet dreams my dad and grandad
