Taken

None of my words can find their way out my mouth
Even with every intention of sincerity they would be powerless to comfort your broken heart
A part of your life taken without warning, my words can’t fill the gap
My arms around you aren’t their arms,
My loving hug can’t replace their presence
If I could give a piece of me to repair your wounds,
I would dedicate it to you with every tear that you lose from your grieving eyes

Dedicated to my mum – RIP Grandad x
