Opa- "Grandpa"
I remember your bare feet in the sand.
I remember your wonderful laugh.
Crossword puzzles on the table, army medals.
I love you to the moon and back.
I remember your blue eyes looking into hers,
like you had this beautiful love.
I remember you dancing at the fests,
And you always cheering everyone up.
I can still feel you hold my hand,
my favorite man.
An even from that moment I knew,
I wanted to be just like you.
You will always be my best sixteen years.
I remember how much you loved her,
and how much she loved you too.
Who else could have lasted a whole sixty years?
And it’s about to be Halloween now.
Your house would always be decorated.
I remember the last day, when I kissed your face
I wish that I had told you,
that you will always be my best sixteen years.
What if I’m standing here trying to talk to you.
What if I always wear your pajamas when I feel scared.
And what if I really thought some miracle would see us through, and what if the miracle was even getting one more day with you.
You will always be my best sixteen years.
I remember your bare feet in the sand.
I love you to the moon and back!
