Calls Not Awnsered
It's been a long time
many years have gone bye
Over a decade now has passed
Since we last talked
was the last time you called
To see what I was doing
asking about my day
Only trying to make conversation
Getting me to talk
just so you'd know I was ok
I would love to see you
When are you coming over
Grandpa would ask
Soon, I'd reply
just not today
Let me give you some advice
He'd say
But the best advice he gave
was the way he lived his life
Lives he saved
as a preacher
All the love he gave
Hurts me to look back
All his calls I didn't answer
Some calls I'd just let ring
Wish I could go back
call his calls back
If only he could awnser
I'd tell him it was me
Tell grandpa I'm sorry
I love you
you're dearly missed
Now when my phone rings
If I can, I'll awnser
Knowing it's not grandpa
buñt could be a loved one
Asking about my day
In loving memory of grandpa
