Thinking about You

I was thinking about you today

 

 

While I was shopping

I saw something and thought of you

And for a moment

I forgot…

 

I saw your face

In my head

Picturing you opening your gift

And for a moment

I forgot…

 

I felt you there with me

Knowing you’d be laughing

And for a moment

I forgot…

 

I forgot you weren’t there

That I’ll never see your face

Or hear your voice

And for a moment

I forgot…

 

But then the pain crashed in

And my heart broke again

That I’ll never see you again

Because you're gone

But for a moment

You were here

My grandfather passed a few months ago and while shopping I saw the perfect gift and for a moment I felt him there beside me
