A Christmas wish from the heart

As I sit watching the hospital lights gleam above your head, you sleep like an angel. I wonder what the world would be like without you and as I think more and more, my eyes fill with tears. I dont want to imagine the world without you, it just wont be the same. I need you in my world, for it isnt whole without the most important part, you, my grandfather, my friend and one of my best friends. I know the day comes for everyone to leave this world to join another, but not yet. What will happen is the only thought that replays in my head as I stare at your sweet old face, I know you await your arrival to grandmas arms and I understand. But the ideal that I will never again have you to hold in mine gives me the blues. You have done so much for others, you gave me the chance of life by giving my father his chance. I thank you for the life I am able to live. I thank you for the guidance, lessons and teachings you have provided me threw out my years of life, and for the memories you have blessed me with. I truly have the best gift of all, the memories we have shared, the gift that will never expire, fade or disappear. As I hold your fragile hand in mine, I feel the passion of your life and the want of freedom, so as I pray to god tonight I will ask him for his strength and comfort to be extended to you tonight as you lie here with the thoughts running in your head that I will never know.
