My Father

I wish I could have known you I wish you were still here My life has been so lonely Even when everyone is near I have lived my life as best as I can But there will always be an emptiness within me I have tried to fill it with happiness and dreams And I imagine what you could be Someone who will understand Who will always be there A father for whom I could love And who would love me for who I am I wish I could have known you I wish you could be here with me in loving memory of Scott Robert Douglas
