My Grandpa's Funeral

**The funeral was today(June 5, 2012)**

No goodbye
You left without a spark
The light left your eyes
Left me in the dark
All strength left me body
All hope left my heart
No light in your gentle eyes
You left me in the dark...

No apologies said
Regret choking my mind
I never got the time to prove
How much you mean to me
The casket lowers deeper
And the cracks in my heart grow wider
I'm usually not much of a crier
But now I can't stop...

I remember sitting with you
Watching the hummingbirds outside your window
You would joke with me
Sometimes talk serious and loving...
I haven't seen you in two years...
But I saw you today
No light in your eyes
All of your soul drained...

I didn't see you for two years...
but I saw you today
No light in your eyes
All of your soul drained.....
