I delayed posting this, because I was not sure if I could bear it.
Exactly 10 years ago my Grandfather died, I lost my role model, my protector, and my champion. I did not just loose my grandparent I lost my dad. I lost saturday morning doughnuts and quarters for the toy machines at Warehouse Market. I miss him.
The following was taken just days before his death. Grandpa Denton in front, Grandad in rear.
This was taken the day after he passed. Sept 27, 1996
Somtimes I wonder what he would think of me now, how I would rank?
A few of you may remember me in the days that followed, I was a Zombie.
This song reminds me so much of him.
Sunny days seem to hurt the most
Wear the pain like a heavy coat
I feel you everywhere I go
See your smile, I see your face
I hear you laughing in the rain
Still can't believe your gone
(Chorus:)
It ain't fair you died to young
Like a story that had just begun
But death tore the pages all away
God knows how I miss you
All the hell that I've been through
Just knowing, no one could take your place
Sometimes I wonder, who you'd be today
(Chorus)
Today [3x]
Today [3x]
Sunny days seem to hurt the most
I wear the pain like a heavy coat
The only thing that gives me hope
Is I know, I'll see you again someday
Someday, someday
Wear the pain like a heavy coat
I feel you everywhere I go
See your smile, I see your face
I hear you laughing in the rain
Still can't believe your gone
(Chorus:)
It ain't fair you died to young
Like a story that had just begun
But death tore the pages all away
God knows how I miss you
All the hell that I've been through
Just knowing, no one could take your place
Sometimes I wonder, who you'd be today
(Chorus)
Today [3x]
Today [3x]
Sunny days seem to hurt the most
I wear the pain like a heavy coat
The only thing that gives me hope
Is I know, I'll see you again someday
Someday, someday
The fair, and heavy rain in September remind me of him. Just minutes after he left the sky burst open in tears. That is a memory that will never leave. But I must say this, he always did what he thought was right, no matter the odds, I only hope I can try to follow in those footsteps.
