Last Days With My Dad
LAST DAYS WITH MY DAD
You adopted us giving love
A mom & Dad & star above
We grew with a future of our own
Never left to do it alone
Then it happened last year
When you fell
We all rushed to be there
As you went through hell
I felt I was at a loss
As you laid there & tossed
You, holding on saying goodbye
Days later, you’re still alive
Back & forth you came
There was so much pain
Finding out who you are
As my tears begin to fall
Last days with my dad
I never really understood you
Feeling so deep & sad
Now I really do…..
THANK YOU, THANK YOU
