I see your smiling face everyday
You look at me and I you
Sometimes I feel the tears in my eyes
I always fight them off
Only three years have passed
I still seek your guidance yet you are silent
Looking at you, hoping all was a dream
You never got to see us girls finish growing up
I feel as if I disappointed you with my choices
And somehow, I feel that you were also proud
That you're watching over and smiling at who I am
So many things have been left unsaid
I had so much I wanted to share with you
You taught me so much
How smart I could be as long as I applied myself
The strength I had as long as I believed in it
Respect for the written word and it's meaning
Thank you so much for all of that
Please see that I love you and miss you greatly
Good bye Grandpa, I hope you rest well
