My immortal – Evanecense
“I’m so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
‘Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won’t leave me alone
These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I’m bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me
These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time cannot erase
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone
But though you’re still with me
I’ve been alone all along”
this song randomly came on my ipod tonight.. everytime i hear this song i cry..it’s the only time that i can really cry though, and know why.. so that’s good. right? my dear cousin joni sang this song at my grandfather’s funeral.. it always reminds me of him.. he was a good man.. a good father.. a very hard worker.. a terrific grandfather.. he had the best sense of humor, loved life and being outdoors and with family.. goodness, i could go on and on.. and i do regret not spending more time with him than i did now, which i’m sure we all say once someone we love passes.. but, we were all there in the end.. and he saw us and knew how much love was in that hospital room… i do miss him.. and i believe he was the kind of man that everyone who knew him felt honored.. i wish he could have met meleia.. we miss you gramps.
When looking at this it still seems as yesterday, what a sad,sad time Our family had to endure losing such a wonderful man.
Thank you for doing this for gramps!!
