I asked God

I asked God why he is taking you he said he couldn't say, all he knew was you are too sick to stay. I asked God why he's taking you, he said he knew you were special since you were a little boy, that you brought so many people in your life so much joy. I asked God why you had to go, he told me that it was time that the pain you are feeling is a crime. I asked God why you have to go, he told me that you deserved much more, that he wanted you in heaven, to go and explore. I asked God what to do now that you are not here, he told me that you are, that I hold you very near. I asked God what is plan is for you, he told me its much bigger than this life, that you will be able to build blanket forts without much strife. I asked God what his plan is for you, he told me that its grand, that you have more meant for you than this life had planned. I asked God these questions because I miss you so. Deep down I wish you did not have to go. I know its time for you, you have to leave. God is calling your name, and pulling on your sleeve. I look up to you and all that you did achieve. I am so thankful that you were here, that I got to call you grandpa, that I got to hold you near. Thank you for being my hero and teaching me so many things. Im so happy for all the memories and joy that thinking of you brings. I will miss you each and every day. You were a great man in every single way. I hope you Rest In Peace until I see you again, yours truly, your best friend. -MDL
