Without Saying Goodbye

It was early in the morning Around 9 or 10 When my mom came home Accompanied by men It was the look in her eyes That confirmed my worst fears And when my stepdad arrived I still held my tears He's gone, I know it They didn't have to say All I had to ask was In what way? Gassed himself... I was instantly sad Alone with his thoughts And I wasn't even there to hold his hand Why?... was the question I kept asking myself Wasn't I enough To keep this man in good health He was more than a man, He was a hero to me My father was so special I just wish he could see

A very sad but beautifully written poem, yeah every person dads is a hero for them, he s so special bud, I myself love my father like a mad man, don t be sad, happiness and grieve are part of life, everyone who s born is due to die, every being on Earth will eventually die, just pray for Him that the God give him a good place in heaven however I m new on this site and would really appreciate if you could find time to read my poems and give your honest reviews about them

Beautiful and deeply sad. And a wake up call to us who have those feelings that we are more to those who love us.
