Thoughts of a Father

It’s all in my head I think about it over again When you three are all Older and with friends I wish every day you wake up That it is a clear blue sky I know you have wondered why I never shared in your lives Yes, me too I can’t take it I can’t shake it One day when you wake up I’ll have to say goodbye But while I’m still alive Rest assured If GOD is above me He gives me strength For all you know I’ll provide and love you three Until the day I close my eyes Thoughts of a father These feelings I harbour Stored away in an emotional jar Viewing it now on the display cabinet It is real freedom of scars…
