Em Paquette
March 9, 2017
When I was eight,
I was scared,
And you knew that…
When I was eight,
I was waiting for my dad by the door,
And you saw me…
When I was eight,
I was embraced by you,
And you lead me…
When I was eight,
I had to say goodbye to grandma,
And you did too…
When I was eight,
I was alone,
And you stepped up and changed that…
When I was eight,
I had you,
And now at 15…
I am at a lost because you aren’t here anymore…
When I was eight,
I had you to guide me to her casket,
And now who’s gonna guide me to yours?
