Still Hurting - 1998

by

Wilma Hoofard

Dear Grandpa,

Still yet another year goes by,
As the anniversary day of your death grows closer I start to cry.

I am doing so much better as I told you I would,
I try not to remember the pain of loseing you ,only if I could.

As I stood there and watched you sleep, I heard them calling you home.
I didn’t care I was selfish I didn’t want to be here on earth all alone.

I know you and Grandma or watching us and are happy as you can be.
I am still keeping my promise for Martain is here safe with me.

Dad is not doing to well as I know you see,
I sit and wonder what is next ? Is God going to take him from me.

Life is getting so hard Grandpa ,I am not sure at times if I can go on ?
I wish you were here to help me but I know you had to go home.

Gosh I wish you could wright me a letter or even a sign.
So you could tell me all is well and daddy will be just fine.

If you were here right now i would crawl in your lap and have you hold me tight,
I would give anything to feel you wiping my tears from my face and kissing me good night.

Grandpa I love you and so happy that your with grandma again,
But I miss you my dear old friend.
