To my Grandfather

In this moment,
We all see the dark that has come,
But through the clouds,
The great unknown
We see the light.

The path taken of most resistance,
The way that you were,
The way that we remember,
We can see the troubles,
But overall you were,
We're one to make a difference.

Through the hardships,
In the good times,
No matter what happened,
You were their,

So inviting of others,
Your kindness never stretched,
You were the pillar to us all.

We now sit here in our rooms,
In My room here,
I remember what has happened and look forward.

From the closed door,
With all us here,

In My room,

The mended love,
The troubles forgotten,
We will never forget.

In My room here,
I dwell on what has gone,
And we miss you.


As we drive,
Our lives go on,
But marked forever,
Forever on what happened.

The Blood was shed,
The emotions high,
But we will never forget.

You took the high road,
The path of a Leader.

We have let the fear take the wheel,
But now the time has passed,
And the past as the past,
As we march forward,
All you were,
All I am,
All We are,
We are found and will go on,
But We will never forget.

As you guide us,
With the knowledge that you left.
