I never really knew you
I was scared to talk to you
cause I thought you were
weird you cried for no reason
making me feel uncomfortable
knowing you were always
looking at me with a smile
but
crying I couldnt stand it anymore
I walked out without even saying
the three words I never told you
'I love you'
Then as I find out you had a stroke
making me understand why you cried
I go, to tell you
and you leave me
leave me with this big burden that is suffocating
me, smothering me with guilt
and now I can never tell you
the three words you wanted to hear
'I love you'

Dedicated to my loving grandpa
