A Father's Cry To God

I sit alone here everyday and night Thinking of my daughter you took away She was my heart, she was my soul She was the thing that made me whole I have no hope, I have no faith I have no energy She was the only pride and joy That rose inside of me And now there's just an empty space Where laughter used to dwell My heart has got no purpose now It is just an empty shell As I look at children play at places I think about my daughter; my greatest loss Sometimes I wonder where she is Does she think about a dad she'll never see? My days are filled with anger and nights with pains How I face each day without her Her toys are strewn about the floor Her bed is empty now There's nothing left for me but memories Of the times we had when she was here I hear her voice inside my head calling to me And when I close my eyes, her face is all I see Deep down in my heart, I think Why will God take a love that Cannot disappear and will not hide? A father's cry to God to awaken his daughter.
