The Angels Are With You

The Angels Are With You Now

Please help me as I try and understand.
I hear your voice but cannot hold your hand.
You are not here
And I am really sad.
Its hard to keep on going and at times I get really mad.
I want to see you
I want to hug you again
But some things in life aren’t easy for me to understand.
You were the greatest man I could ever know.
And people try to give me comfort as they tell me where you might go.
Its not fair that you had to leave when there was just too much more for me to say.
And it takes a great deal for me to carry on with my day.
I guess they needed an angel in heaven, just one more.
The angels were calling you to join them
And you were ready to knock on their door.
I wanted some answers as I looked toward the sky.
Because its hard to talk to people
I don’t want them to see me cry.
I don’t want to be with anyone
I just want to scream out loud.
I hope I made an impression on you and made you proud.
You were a good man
You have seen where I’ve been
Even on my worst days you were there when I just couldn’t win.
Thanks for being there when I was little and got sick
It was comforting to know you were by my side.
You saw me through my schooling and saw how hard I tried.
Because I wasn’t like every other kid and you didn’t care.
I would always hold your hand because you were always there.
I want you to know that God had a plan for me and you were it.
He saw that I could do anything and taught me never to quit.
You will be in my heart always and forever.
You were there to talk to even on my worst day
You just were there to make everything ok
I wish I knew how to be a little stronger.
All I wanted is to be with him a little longer.
When people see me I try not to fall apart.
But you will always be a person that is close to my heart.
I am proud of you and the life you have lead.
And I would never have wanted any other grandpa instead.
