Saying Goodbye

Dear Dad saying goodbye was hard,                                                                          to you and all we knew.                                                                                                 Memories fading just like the bouquets,                                                                        flowers from the grave.                                                                                                  Days turn into weeks to months to years,                                                                      now all so gone.                                                                                                            I missed you then,                                                                                                          I miss you now.                                                                                                              Saying goodbye,                                                                                                            until we meet again.
