Do You Know What It's Like?
To wake up and know you'll never see
Your grandparents ever again
Because they're in Heaven with God?
The pain swells inside more and more
As each day that goes by and they still remain dead,
I get more and more tempted to join them,
But deep down, I know that, as much as I miss them,
It's not my time yet.
Do you know what it's like
To realize your grandparents will never be able to attend
Special and important events such as prom, graduation, etc.?
Yet you know they would've come,
but they can't because they're with God in Heaven.
Do you know what it's like
To have been able to live for nearly an entire year
With them still being dead?
I always say to myself,
"Holy crap, it's been nearly a year,
I can't believe how fast time has gone by".
Nana and Granddaddy,
I miss you both so much
That sometimes I feel as though
I just want to give up on life.
But I know I can't do that,
Because I have a family and a boyfriend
Who'll continue to help me through this journey of grief.
So until the right day comes,
and Death rightfully takes me away from Earth,
I'll just continue to miss you both and love you
Even more with each day that passes by.
