"he's at peace now honey"

"he's at peace now honey" those are the words that came out of my mother's mouth when she called me last night. which means my grandfather is gone, officially and though i knew it was coming, i'm still quite devastated. i'll live but i'll always remember the man that did everything he could to help me succeed in life.

He’s at peace?
Why are these the words she speaks?
Why did it hit me like a ton of bricks?
Why did all the pain have to come in the mix?
Why did he have to be so great?
Can’t you come and take away this ache?
He’s gone now, is he happy?
Is he now watching over me?
How come he’s gone, at this particular time?
Couldn’t you have waited, or would that be a crime?
He was doing so well, couldn’t you tell?
Happy again, healthy, couldn’t you see?
If I could I’d cast you under a spell,
Make you bring him back to me.
And wouldn’t you be furious?
You’d wonder how I did it, you’d be curious?
I’d get in your mind and find out why.
Why you couldn’t wait at least another month?
How you could know all my dreams yet still do this?
You make me want to scream?
I know that he is now happy, free from this world.
On to the next, just answer one question.
Does he know I love him with all of my heart?
