Goodbye For Now

Its been years since you passed….
The memories of you will forever last….
Images of us still remains in my memory….
Times spent together, was spent happily….
When your death was announced…
I said goodbye for now….
Until we meet again….
My dearest grandfather….

The day I visited your headstone….
Ironically, felt like home….
Emotions brewed up inside…
As they put your ashes in the ground, I cried…..
Though goodbye for now is in my head, there your name I read….
Your presence, I still remember everyday of my waking .hour….
As I stared at your face on your stone grave….
I thought about the knowledge that you gave….
Always called me your Little Japanese Girl….
Made me feel like I was on the top of the world….
While you were in cloud nine….
I hold up a glass of your favorite wine….

Reminiscing of you in your favorite spot….
Makes my knees shake and my heart throb….
Its so hard to say goodbye to you Jai….
Goodbye for now, is all I can write…
Until next time, in the afterlife, I will fly, and you will meet me there, for you are my spiritual guide….
