death is the worst part of living

I wish I cold be there with you.

I wish I could hold your hand,

and give you some positive light.


I wish I could see you smile.

I wish I could make you smile. 

Because it used to light up the room.


The family used to say you were a pain in the ass. 

But I always loved how you sat quiet in the corner of a party. 

Because if people were quiet and talked to you,

you told the best stories. 


You went through hell in your long life. 

And I loved hearing your stories.


You used to put me to sleep,

and tuck me in. 

You would sing these german songs,

and I didn't appreciate them at that time. 

But I do now. 


Some of my fondest  childhood memories,

had you in them. 


Thank you for everything you did for me.

Thank you for loving me,

and cheering for me in every situation of my life.


I love you,

and I am going to miss you so much.
