*POEM TO MY GRANDDADDY*

Life is a ticking time bomb, Just waiting to explodeAnd when it does, life ends and all memories erode
of the loved ones who lived who's lives have been taken
Leaving many here to grieve, with hearts broken, souls shaken
There are many spaces empty, and now many to be filled
and now were sitting here,missing you, waiting to be healed
even though we all miss you, and wish that you were here
we know you in a better place and you don't have to shed a tear
now your family cries for you and we carry on your pain
and we do this because we love you and you kept us all sane
and to your soul i give my heart because your heart gave up on you
now my heart doesn't just beat for one, It is now beating for two
now its too late to go back and now i feel so alone
But I think back on the times we had and love you've always shown

and in you arms you have always allowed me to cry
so I guess it was best that in my arms you would die
I love you as my father and in my heart you will always stay
and to see you again is what I'm waiting for and will always pray
Luther Vandross wrote that song, in which now i say is for you
And hundreds Love that song and wish that it would come true
To dance with you is my dream and it would be my honor
It would mean  the world to me because you are my love, and you are
MY FATHER

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
