You Did Not Go Alone
Although you died one cold dreary night...
On a lonely road...
Not too far from your home....
You did not go alone.
Although your life..... And the way you believed....
Very few people understood....
But I for one knew you....So...
You did not make your last journey all alone.
The peace-maker you were, will forever hold it's memory ....
In my heart...to forgive thy fellow neighbor...
To you... this was our earthly part.
A part of me died with you..
As you left this earthly place...
But I know a smile awaited you...
As you parted those pearly gates.
Daddy...I will always love and miss you...
Though a delayed reaction I had to your death...
But...I guess it's God way of sheltering us....
Through things we cannot accept.
Now....I pray you rest in peace....
It's been two years that you have been gone...
Your family, friends, and loved ones....
One day will join you at the right hand....
Of our Creator's Throne.
As I have said....A part of me.....
Went with you....
You did not leave all alone.
Your loving Daughter,
