I Miss You Dad
On this particular day, four years ago,
a huge piece of my heart departed with an amazing soul.
Days turned into months and months turned into years,
a shattered heart is plastered with silent tears.
They say that time will heal and the pain eventually fades away.
But here I am four years later still awaiting that day.
Days turned into months and months turned into years,
yet my fears & loneliness have still not disappeared.
It’s difficult walking around with a smile upon my face.
Pretending that everything’s okay on this earthly place.
Your memories will remain forever etched in my mind. Reliving those priceless moments convinces me that I will be fine.
So many new memories created as life passes by.
I keep wishing you could be here even for just a while.
I miss you been there to protect me or catch me when I fall.
I wish heaven had a phone for me to make those calls.
I miss you so much Dad, more than words can even say.
I wish you were here to convince me that everything turns out okay.
Days turn into months and months turn into years
I still despise the fact that you’re no longer here.
