Grandma, I can't believe you are gone.
I miss you so much but it finally dawned.
You are not coming home.
You are in heaven so I wrote this poem.
I just want you to know that I love you.
I know this is something you already knew.
I want you to know you changed my life.
Although when I found out you are gone the pain hurt like a knife.
You taught me right from wrong.
And you helped me be strong.
I miss your smile I miss your face.
I can't believe you've finished the race.
I know you're in a better place.
And no one will ever fill your space.
I miss your hugs I miss your voice.
Now that heaven has you they can rejoice.
I wish I could have one more second with you.
To tell you how much you mean to me but I think you already knew.
I wish I could have just one more hug.
My heart is hurting like someone ripped it with a tug.
I will always miss you.
No matter what anyone can say or do.
I hope you are happy up there and I know you still care.
I just want you to know one day I'll see you there.
I wish you could have been there to see me graduate.
I guess that just wasn't fate.
I hope I made you proud.
I will be sure to look for the angel in the crowd.
I wish you could have seen me get married and give birth.
I know the pain hurts but one day I will see it's worth.
I will always remember you the way you truly were.
Happy, laughing, and smiling, yes sir!
I just want you to know if it wasn't for you.
I would not be the person I grew into.
I love you grandma and I wish I could look you in the eyes.
To say these final words, Grandma, I love you and goodbye.
