My Unanswered Questions and Memories
By: CoCo
Grant William Shaw was such an awesome man.
Why God? Did you come down and grab his hand.
So many memories running through my head,
Lego cities, him tucking me into bed.
Why kids so cruel I ask myself?
But, he stood strong and believed in himself.
My bear Sammy still isn’t enough,
I will see him in heaven but that could not come soon enough.
I think about you all of the time,
And nothing can get you off my mind!
I miss you more and more every day,
Missing you will stay in my heart until my very last day.
I can’t wait for the delightful day where we reunite.
All that I see will be a big light!
Because your smile is priceless and means so much to me,
You are so much more than I could ever be.
You are so beautiful and never forget
I’ll always remember the picture with me, you, and Rachel by the hockey net.
You put us in your shirt and made my dad laugh.
You were a family guy, you would do anything for us even build us a raft.
You were an awesome person to be around,
And that is why we were so tight!
You would play Barbie’s with me and Rachel or even fly a kite.
Although I can’t read this poem without choking up,
I want you to know that you were an amazing uncle and 50 was too young.
That’s why it makes me so angry to see an innocent person die at such a young age.
If “God” could already make such a great world why couldn’t he keep you in it?
Why were there so many cruel kids that would make fun of you?
Why did my amazing uncle have to get epilepsy?
Why can’t I bring back the two minutes of his life that killed him?
But no matter what happened to you I will always love you and you are in my heart forever<3
