Dad Gained His Angel Wings
Dad Gained His Angel Wings
On the 29th of October
My life it changed for good
Not in the way that I had hoped
Or in a way it even should
My dad he gained his angel wings
It should not have been this way
Dad wasn’t supposed to leave us
I lost a piece of my heart that day
I keep hoping that it’s a cruel dream
And one day I’ll wake and see
Him walking down the stairs again
Asking for yet another cup of tea
It’s been a month since dad was taken
There aren’t enough words to say
How much we love and miss him
I think of him every single day
I only have my memories
Which I hold close to my heart
But the thought of never seeing dad
Is quietly tearing me apart
(Love you always dad)
