Poetry: A shoulder to cry on

by Betty Stone

Created on: April 10, 2009

Grandaddy,

You always gave me a shoulder to cry on.

A hand to hold, a heart full of love.

Life would have been unbearable,

if not for you.

You gave me the only love I knew.

And I am a better person because of you,

and the love you gave me.

Your comforting hug and welcoming smile,

were my lifeline.

I miss you so much, still.

So many years have passed.

Sometimes, I weep bitter tears,

and I would give my life,

to feel your loving embrace,

and have your shoulder to cry on.
