Title: Papa

My Grandfather died on the 23rd December 2002. He never saw the holiday we were all so looking forward to. In agony he lived at home a few weeks, fighting to act normal. IT was painful to see.

I loved him so much. It tore me appart when he was admitted to hospital. We all knew what was coming, even him. He'd told me so and I'd tried to deny it but there is no escaping the truth.

I used to call him 'fluff' because his chemotheropy had made the hair on his arms go fluffy. It was a fond nickname, one that still can hurt to utter.

I miss him. I'd never thought about after he died during his illness. The worst thing I could see was his death but it was probably best for him. Now he's free, in peace. But we all still mourn him, still crave to hear his voice. I'd give anything to see him again. I really wish I could.

I still cry about it and feel odly empty when I think about his missed presence. Losing someone is agony. I'd do anything to have them back, but they're gone. He's gone and a return isn't possible despite our desperate pleas.

Wherever he is I hope he is in peace. RIP Papa! XxX
