Guardian Angel (about my grandpa)

[Jesse]

Always forward moving,
through the fog, the rain,
and the storm. Soft voice
soothing, you shelter me
in your arms.

Wind rushing, the trees are
flailing, cold moving in
with darkness assailing.
Always with you, forever
my heart is staying.

For you are my knight,
my blissful shore on
starry nights. You
are my guardian, your
soul shines brilliant
colored lights in your eyes.

Even hero's die, leaving
the living wondering why
and we cry, cry, cry. You
left a piece of yourself
inside, a loving, tender,
side I'll never hide.

My heart left shattered
when you died, what happened
to my protector, my knight
in which I confide. Flashing
figments and partially seen,
waking I chase after broken
dreams.

You're the bravest I've
ever seen, take me up again
on your wings. Pain right now
as venom stings, warm memories
again a smile they bring.

Your armour rests, you wore
it proud, hugged against your
chest, darkness and clouds as
beaten opponents fall to the
ground.

Soft voice soothing, you kissed
my brow, you will wear your armour
now? My only prayer is that one
day I'll be, a knight for someone as
you were for me.

Stanza number 5 really got to me very powerful. Great choice of wording.

It carries good feeling.

He was the world to me.
