Grandfather, Dearest

Grandfather
You have been my inspiration for everything
Out of all of my family, it is you that i love the most
I love the way that you talk about your WWII days
I love that you always greet me the same way
I love that even when you are in the hosptial
you have a huge smile for me when i come in the room
I love that you let me draw all over your driveway

i love that you saw what i was getting at with my designs
I love that you love me, and support me through everything
I love that you call my sweetheart
Please, Grandfather
Don't die now
I still need you
I want you to be able to see my graduation
I want you to be able to cheer me on when i become a fashion designer
I want you to be there for my cousin
He needs you
Hes only five
