Thank You

by Christina Gillis   Apr 12, 2008


I want to thank you for never leaving me
and always being there,
I want to thank you for not giving up on me
when life seemed unfair.

I want to thank you for showing
me a fathers love,
I want to thank you well...
just because.

In fifteen years you've done your
best to raise me,
Im sorry I didn't become anything better
I was young and stupid and couldn't see.

I've been gone to treatment
for about a year,
the "old me" is lost
but now I have a big fear.

I don't want to become
who I used to be,
my plan is to be on the outs
and stay free.

But what if my plan goes
wrong and i do it all again?
Will god still except me
with all of my sins?

Dad I have many questions
for you to answer,
I just want to go back to
when I was five and wanted to be a dancer.

I didn't make any mistakes
I was your perfect babygirl,
but then i got thrown into reality
and was lost in a twirl.

You are a very strong man
that has a big heart,
thank you for being my dad
we shall never part.
