To my papaw who will always hold a special place in my heart. You will be greatly missed. I came up with this poem as I thought of you. I love you so much paw and know I will see you again.
Every tear drop is a key
To the memories I hold inside of me
All the precious moments bound to slip away
All the things we take for granted each and every day
If I could go back into the past
Then know I would so I could make things last
They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger
But what I wouldn’t give to keep you a little longer
There comes a time when we must say goodbye
But I didn’t know how the time would fly
You will always be with me in my heart
Even though we will be far apart
One day I know I will see you once again
Until then I will stay strong to the very end
(A/N The song to the side is what played at my Papaw's funeral. Every time I hear it, makes think of him.)
