Hey there grandpa

how are you? I have not seen you in a long time

Oh! I remember now, you are gone

but I still see you in my dreams

you make me smile and you make me cry

I miss you, you know

sleeping in your arms in mid-afternoon

I miss the smell of your clothes

your hugs, your kisses, your love

mostly, I miss you.

You left me so young, yet,

I love you still with the same intensity of yesterday

with the same strength of all those times ago

the times we spend together playing games

laughing, sleeping, eating, watching TV

I miss you so much

I know you have been gone for a very long time

just wanted to tell you, I love you still

and miss you even more
