So close to gone
Feel as though you are
Hurts to know
I'm going to lose you
Why so quickly
What have you ever done
Can't I go instead
Take that death away
Let you live as you should
I don't want you gone
Can't leave us all behind
My Grandfather
Not how you should leave
Without control and strength
Not the way
The strong should fall
Terrible things inside
Take away the life
Strength in you
My Grandfather
Try to be so strong
When I think of you
But I break down
Even as I write
Or when I see you
Hope you don't go
Can't leave us now
My Grandfather
Because we love you
