Portfolio of Hope

It’s worse

when it comes at you

out of nowhere.

The pain of the dawning realisation

that-

I will never see you again-

when it hits me

in full force.

The image of you standing in the doorway,

with that cheeky look on your face-

etched in my memory.

What I’d give to walk through the door

and see you again.

What I’d give to be able to tell you how much I loved you,

how much we all loved you-

love you-

Grandad,

as proud to have you as our Grandad

as you were proud to have us as your Grandchildren.

What

I’d

give.

-Grandad-

<3

for you,

always.
