Dear Grandpa

My life that seemed to be going so well. I loved my family and my friends. I played a lot of sports and always was decent at what I did. I went through high school with high hopes. I then found myself losing a family member that was there for me through thick and thin. Losing him was the starting point to a new friend. I didn't even notice at the time that I was wrong til now. I went to being a rising star to a fucking clown. My life seemed to turn up side down. I found myself drinking my life away. Thinking this would solve everything. I found out it caused more pain and I messed up everything. Figuring out my problems with mistakes. I atleast got it though my thick head and became a man. A man that my Grandpa knew I could become. He was there at my games cheering me on and now I believe he's up there doing the same. I love you Grandpa. I miss you everyday. I know I made mistakes but I will follow your footsteps, knowing your always there guiding my way.
