Missing You
I see my daddy sometimes what we talk about is between him and I.
To be in his arms one more time you name it, I promise I wouldnt put up a fight...
It's been almost ten years and Im still grieving
I remember that phone call when they said he was no longer breathing
In my mind I was thinking everybody knows my daddy likes to play games that *****
just sleeping...
As time started fading away reality hit me and I had to check my own pulse to see if my
heart was still beating...
Being in a state of shock my thoughts kept repeating, flashbacks of those nights when
I deserved a beating, you loved me so much I was never was mistreated...
Every night before I closed my eyes you always repeated those three special words
that young girl needs to hear, and even though your not physically here if I close
my eyes tightly not only does your face reappear, but I can softly hear you speak
to me in my ear.
