Dad's Cold Heart

You had to make this heart of mine angry before you die. You left me bitter this tired, cold heart of mine. I once loved you but you turned me away. The words you send leave me discouraged. At one time, I felt you was my only friend. How can you turn a daughter away when she loves you so much even when it rains everything is beautiful because of your soul. I am tired and weak. I suffer every night. Can I not be perfect? You try to bring me down and this heart is turning black. One day when you are put to rest in the grave will I shed a tear? Of course I will and the sun will still shine because I always loved you.
