ZMermaid's Broken Heart























~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


I know you may not want to hear my sad story,
But I would like it to be known, to anyone who cares about my Broken Heart...


The day my Grandpa went to Heaven
November 7th, 2001, 87 years young,
was when my heart had never felt so much pain
To me he IS still here with me. The words to describe my life are of many hardships.
Growing up, I never knew how much Grandpa did for me.
Today, at my age, 30, I have wanted so dearly to know everything about my family,
through and through.
Family means so much to me.
I never had a deep relationship with Grandpa,
but you don't have to be around all the time to love somebody so much.
The past few years I have tried to be there with him as much as I could, but I felt it wasn't enough.
His last 2 weeks, I kneeled by his bed and never wanted to leave his side for one moment.
I prayed to God he would give me a little more time.
I told Grandpa I was sorry for not being around enough.
I told him how much I loved him and how beautiful he was to me.
I have never felt so much pain in my life the day he decided he couldn't fight anymore.
This opened my eyes to God. Through Grandpa, God is with me too.
This is something I wrote for Grandpa...

Little He Asked
Much He Gave
I could say "was", but to me he IS, a Wonderful, Beautiful
Grandpa
I love and respect him and always will
To so many, he was the most loving, caring, honest
Friend
There aren't enough words to describe the sunshine he brought to me
and many, many others.
Some of the little things I know he loves,
Of course his gardening
kitties, baseball, church and chocolate
I'll miss his sweet smile and the twinkle in his eyes
I'll miss holding his hand and hearing his voice
But, I will always have him with me.

In Loving Memory John VanWoerkom LTC

Once Upon A December

Dancing bears,
Painted wings,
Things I almost remember,
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December.
Someone holds me safe and warm,
Horses prance through a silver storm,
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory...
Someone holds me safe and warm,
Horses prance through a silver storm,
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory...
Far away, long ago,
Glowing dim as an ember,
Things my heart
Used to know,
Things it yearns to remember...
And a song
Someone sings
Once upon a December....
