Grandad

You didnt deserve none of this

You were a kind loving man

And i blamed them for not helping

But they did the best they could!

I was devestated when you died

I mean i had just lost my Grandad,

And all i could think was why you?

It wasnt fair!

I was really upset when i couldnt go to the funeral

I didnt get a chance to say goodbye!

I was so exited when i first whent to visit the grave

But when i got there it was a diffrent story,

I couldnt stop crying!

It was horrible knowing your just in a box under the ground

You deserved better!

I know your looking down at me

And watching

You probabley dont like what you see,

But i dont mean to do the things i do

I just hope your proud of me!

Comments:

There is a truly quaint and genuine love expressed ; Love loss - remorse all tenderly expressed gently and without weighty verbosity.
I wonder what age you were when you lost your Grandad.
Or was the poem written some time after his death?
The yearning the keening and lyrical lament is chaste , but haunting.
The innocence of the boy - his guilt ; his inner torment all so subtly expressed.
Well done .
This type of writing is unusual and so refreshing to me since I joined .
