[hometext] => In loving memory of my Gramps
[bodytext] => The tears are running Drying as they fall The heart is aching From the empty hole You can't run away You can't hide Nothing you do Can stop the inevitable No one can comfort you Not really, if at all No one can replace the hurt Once love has gone away Have you noticed how Time Is always the enemy? It choses the moment When you're really happy The memories are fresh They'll never go away Ink written on pages Scars left on a heart Why did you have to go? Why was there cancer? Granni needs you I need you But, still you left You went back home Cancer had come And took you down Your little girl Is still here today She's now a young lady Making her way Daddy still cries When he thinks he's alone Granni is fading Each passing day Black gowns and dresses Black shoes and scarves A cold, freezing day A tombstone newly marked A cold, lazy wind Two cold arms Military honors To a life you loved Why did you have to go? Why did cancer choose you? Why did you have to leave? I still can't accept the funeral [comments] => 2 [counter] => 155 [topic] => 39 [informant] => Damaged [notes] => [ihome] => 1 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )
