If you love someoe let them go, if they come back then you know it was meant to be.


Today is that day,
the day of your birthday.
To be exact your sixty-ninth birthday,
Wanna see that awesome smile of yours and celebrate your big day.

Instead of celebrating though, I'm grieving for you,
missing your presents is a big part of my life.
Remembering all the days we sat in the kitchen listening to bluegrass music as you played your banjo along with the song.

Just wish I could run up to you and give you a big hug and wish you a happy birthday.
Papaw I miss you,
I lost you to God way too early, wish you could have made it to see the big days in my life, such as graduation day.

Up above, I know you're watching over me and hopefully proud of what such an amazing young lady I have became.

Happy 69th Birthday Papaw!
Miss and love you tons!

I wrote this piece in honor of my grandfather who passed away when I was 5 years of age and who I still grieve over from day to day.
