The moon was a ball of white in the night, The Stars filling the world with light. Little stars in the dark sky glistened, As I sat down to listen.
All these problems inside my head, Why can't I sleep in my bed. All these lonely thoughts they drive me to the moon, My dear, my dear, I hope I see you soon.
For I would jump over the moon, Oh darling come back soon. It is not the same when your not here, no matter what I do. My life is incomplete if I don't spend it with you.
Yes, I will never forget you and your sweet smelling hair, And how your smile is so fair, The funny clothes that you wear. Without you my life is incomplete, Just one last time, can we not meet.
As your spirit goes up to the sky, I find myself wondering why, Oh why, oh why, did you die...
To my poor grandad who died from cancer, this poem is devoted to him.
