Why did you have to go?
shut behind that old door
Unexpectly quite you layed
your son’s haunting words forming in my ears
“My dad is dead”
An unexpected sentence forever stuck on replay
You were a farther of two
But for me, you made it three
And In the end would of been a father by law
the groom has no father's advice in his stressing last moments
a tinge of sadness lingers with sight of a front row empty seat
"Till death due us part" cracks out of our mouths
never to meet a grandchild
Known by spoken stories and old photos
grandfather by legend over sight
You made me smile when i was down
A son's backbone through thick and thin
We hope you rest, but wish you never left.
