I was only six years old
As i watched him die infront of me
I remember it was raining and very cold
I wondered how could this be
I sat on his lap
I started to cry
This was my pap
He was about to die
I was the last to hug him
I was the first one that cryed
Everyone loved him
I watched as he died
To this day
He's been with me forever
He will lead me they way
Threw my life forever
Author notes
I loved him very much and he means alot to me. The whole story is very sad to hear too.
