Brown Eyes Reincarnated

My dear dad
wherever you are up there
I hope that you can hear 
I use my words as a portal 
and I want them to reach you

Let's just be really straight forward
before the tears start to spring
I really miss you 
I hope your during okay up there
and that each day your sky is blue

I want to live out my dreams 
in life just like you told me to
I won't let anyone get in my way
of course occasionally I may stray
but I can feel you hands 
even if it's imaginary 
their guiding me 
and I won't ever stop listening
there will forever be a piece of me missing

Keep that piece and hold it tight 
and as long as you have it I will 
be alright 
I hope your proud of how I'm turning out
the tears just came down now 
so I guess the pain is sure to follow
It took so many years to stop feeling hallow
after you were gone

I had to pull myself back together 
but in the back of my heart you will
always be mourned for 
I will carry you with me in whatever I do
with these hazel brown eyes you gave me
I will always love you

They say somewhere in the space between the stars, our words are not just archived but is added to an eternal anthem called the music of the spheres. Spirits and angel always hear it. Peace, love and consolation
