PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

When you are just 10 years old,

And you lost your grandpa!

You wish everything were just a dream,

So you don?t have to face reality!



I didn?t want it to be reality,

I wanted a dream,

Because reality is now!

But when you are that age,

You don?t want to face it!



I will take you through the dream that was reality!



When I was at the cemetery for my grandpas barrel,

I didn?t want to be there!

I wanted to know what happened,

And why he wasn?t in the right bed.



I asked Mom, ?Why are we here, and why is grandpa going down there!?

My Mom said, ?Your grandpa?s body is going down their not him.  He is actually in Heaven!?

?Mom lets drive there we can get there so we can see him,? I said, ? I will give you all the money I have if you will take us there.  Lets go home so I can get my $2.00 that will get us there, please mom.? I started to cry, ? Why Mom, Why, come on lets go find him.?

?Hey, honey, we can?t, he is in Heaven, up there, with God.  It is okay.? Mom replied.

?It will not be okay, until we stop crying and I will not until I see him.? I said.

?I?m sorry honey let?s go home,? Mom told me.



I was wondering why I wouldn?t wake up from the dream,

Because it wasn?t a dream it was reality!

I was hoping so badly that it was a dream,

But no it was had to be reality!



I sat down and prayed,

And ask God, ?Why isn?t a dream,

And let me wake up!?

But I never did,

God just told me, ?It was his time.?



Everyone?s nightmare is to have a loved one dies,

But they hope it is a dream,

But it is actually reality!



Grandpa now I understand,

Why you are gone!

And that it wasn't a dream that you died,

It was actually reality!



And my dream someday,

Is you hold me,

And it be reality!
