"So, I guess we are who we are for alot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel "

Yesterday I thought of you,
and the great times that we had.
Yesterday i thought of you,
Before things went bad.
You hid your pain from me,
I didn’t even know.
Yesterday I thought of you,
Of why you had to go.
Yesterday I cried for you,
Remembering better days.
You made my days better by just saying “Hey!”.
I shall never forget you,
If you never forget me.
I’ll see you one day,
When I’m called home by He.
I’ll see you at the gates,
Of pearl and white.
And we’ll walk in the garden,
To see Christ’s great light.
Yesterday I thought of you.

This is for my Grandfather. I miss him so much, but I know that I'll see him again.
