10 Years

10 years Had happy Mornings...but once in awhile...so do mournings... Making the most...still sometimes...at a lost... One moment overjoyed...the next...feeling the void... Wiping out fears...yet often, can't control the tears... One day face the world bravely...then later feel weary... Trying so hard...pretending not to be scarred... Without you by our side...we thought it's best to hide... What we truly feel inside... While we are grateful... and keep everything simple... Forgive us...to you our hearts we pour...but Lord God can we ask for more... Please tell us...Where is our daddy? Can we see him one more time? Perhaps he can help us...as we make life's climb... May we be allowed to see him? And fill our hearts to the brim... We need him right now...just so we could keep up with our vow... To continue to live life with our heads up...survive the storm without letup... Daddy...we miss you so much...one more peek...one more touch... Just a tap on the shoulder...promise...thats all we're after... Your loving and guiding hand we still need... That even without you...in life...we can proceed... Happy 10 years in heaven... 10 years Had happy Mornings...but once in awhile...so do mournings... Making the most...still sometimes...at a lost...
