I didn't know what it was like, Until this morning, My heart stabbed by a spike, But his soul is soaring. When it finally sinks in, I can't talk to him anymore, His spirit now in Heaven, Now and forevermore. I didn't get to know him that well, But seeing my father sad, My tears that fell, But his soul is free, and I'm glad. Grandpa, when I said goodbye, I forgot to tell you I love you. But my mom said that you already knew.

Mourning
I didn't know what it was like, Until this morning, My heart stabbed by a spike, But his soul is soaring. When it finally sinks in, I can't talk to him anymore, His spirit now in Heaven, Now and forevermore. I didn't get to know him that well, But seeing my father sad, My tears that fell, But his soul is free, and I'm glad. Grandpa, when I said goodbye, I forgot to tell you I love you. But my mom said that you already knew.
My grandpa Richard passed away this morning. When I said goodbye to him on Monday, seeing him in a state of what seemed like suffering, I cried. I hate "Goodbye". I hate it. I didn't get to know my grandpa to well. But it still impacted me.
