Grandfather

As u lay on ur death bed, the smell of roses fill the room.

As u take ur last breath, i know ur safe and feel better.

The memories with u are still standing, its hard, but i keep believing,

that u see me, that u look down at me and smile, feeling proud

of how far i have come in life.

The pride i feel to be ur granddaughter is endless.

The tears i feel when my thoughts is of u.

My grandfather, my saviour, my best friend, my rock,

my hero. I wish the moments with u were longer.

Saying goodbye is hard, to watch my best friend lay on the bed

not able to speak or move is hard.

Happy for the years i got to have, for u to watch me grow, 

As a picture of u hang on my fridge, i say that,

u might be gone but ur memory lives on.
