Major Turning Point

I regret what I did For I am your kid You’ve raised me better So I shall write you this letter I write you letter from the heart Yet I don’t know where to start. The holiday time is here But it doesn’t seem like it has brought you good cheer. I hate to see you frown It always puts me down. Nothing means more to me Then making your face shine with glee You might be here for a bit But please take the time to read it Your oldest will soon be a Papp Remember when she used to sit on your lap? Your middle will be eighteen Does that mean its time to be mean? Also his senior year will arrive soon Better enjoy the time before he joins a platoon. Your youngest (that’s me!!) will be able to drive Did you enjoy the year two thousand five? I picked up the phone I felt so alone I didn’t know who to call But you came to my rescue before the fall I thought you’d me mad But at the time you were both to sad I left you with nothing but the bill From someone who listens how I feel But now I wonder how I never felt so close to you Its like the whole thing was my cue I like nothing more Then you being next to men when I close the door That part of my life is through All to the thanks of the love from you two Dad and Mom You guys know how to keep me calm I love spending time with you But the time we spend together is so few
