If Heaven wasn't so far away,
I'd go see you tomorrow for Father's day.
Tell you how I've missed you,
And how I love you too.
I'd cry my eyes out as we talk,
Tell you all my worries as we walk.
Its the days like this when I realize,
It's been forever since I've cried.
I realized it's been days since I've wrote,
But it's not like you'll get this note.
I guess I write so just in case you some how see,
That you still mean so much to me.
I don't cry so I can stay Strong,
Strong for the girls, strong for mom.
I pretend I don't feel all the pain I do,
All this pain of missing you.
Days like this when it's all about Dad,
And I have to remember the one I once had.
The one I no longer get to hug or even see,
The one who was taken from us suddenly.
You think by now the numbness would still be there,
But no, it's now replaced by a feel, a need for tears.
Everyone says they have the best dad but they don't see,
The best dad is the one I have watching over me.
My very own guardian angel.
