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
