One Day Ill Stop Crying

I have never said it enough but the words come so easy now. The few little words I should had blurted out of my mouth years ago. You've been in and out of the hospital for the last two years, Tonight you went in the hospital and I showed my tears. Your eyes were flickering, you wouldn't answer to anyone's voice. Family gathered around your souls powerful force. Is the angels waiting for you? guiding you on your way, I pray! When I saw you lying there, I noticed many of your family did not seem to care. The ones that love you dearly wouldn't leave you're side, the ones that did have so much to hide. Still my own fathers tears were trying not to show but they glowed through his big brown eyes like a rainbow. You are my grand father the one that was a police officer while growing up, I remember while younger you would bring me a slushy and sweets. you were the best grand father, around. And I feel that I have let you down. I stayed with you, for hours even when Hours felt only like minutes. Still it was stressful seeing you not being able to wake up. Wondering if you could hear me, say grand daddy Open your eyes. I saw a tear behind your eyes, I saw your emotions behind the frown. Some believe you had a stroke and you will never again wake up. I say keep your faith, And maybe things will be alright. No matter how much this hurts I must smile at you, Because deep inside I know you feel it to. You feel our thoughts weighing down on you. You feel our sadness, Our stress and anger, over whelming you. I refuse to believe this could happen your only 72, This is not just a simple reaction. Even though some say you cannot hear my voice, I believe you can. I say I love you, I say I forgive you for dyeing, And inside my heart one day ill stop crying.
