My Heart's Desire is For My Grandfather
My Heart's desire
Is to know you I can't ignore its burning flame
All my life I've never seen your face but I've held you in my heart
With life speeding away
This heart's desire is something you just won't give away
I just want to know you
But for know
You walk alone
And from my sad tears
I stand here
Hoping you'll see
You're apart of me
Until you see
I hold nothing against you
I can't
You're a distant
Wish of my heart
Is to know you I can't ignore its burning flame
All my life I've never seen your face but I've held you in my heart
With life speeding away
This heart's desire is something you just won't give away
I just want to know you
But for know
You walk alone
And from my sad tears
I stand here
Hoping you'll see
You're apart of me
Until you see
I hold nothing against you
I can't
You're a distant
Wish of my heart

Elliot, this is that never seen grandfather of yours. Your uncle Scott just sent an e-mail with your site moments ago. Your dad sent this site several months ago but my hotmail was messing up and I lost it.
This poem is very touching, I have few regrets in life but not being with your dad and uncle and seeing you 4 growing up is the big one.
