Daddy, Where Are You?

by Kelly   Jan 3, 2006


Daddy, where have you gone?,
I can hear mommy crying in her room,
my heart begins to fill with sorrow,
as I imagine you lying in a tomb

Why did you think you could leave us?,
you thought we would be able to be strong,
but nothing can feel the same again,
when something this big has gone wrong,

Mommy didn't tell me what happened,
but I could tell just from her eyes,
then tears starting flowing down her face,
tears held back by betrayal and lies

I can tell that she misses you, daddy,
and I'm going to miss you too,
but hopefully you wont mess up,
in this life you are starting over new

I can almost hear your voice,
telling me everything will be alright,
but the sound is suddenly lost,
in the darkness of the night

I always thought you were happy,
and I always thought things were well,
but your whole life you kept things inside,
these secrets you would never tell

I hope you don't think I'm angry,
because I'm not bitter or mad,
but in the bottom of my heart,
I cant help feeling sad

I remember the times we spent together,
all the memories that we made,
but those thoughts are becoming dull,
as the slowly begin to fade

All the times you said you loved me,
and held me while I cried,
I remember those times like yesterday,
it's so hard to say goodbye

I will always remember you daddy,
you will always be in my heart,
even thought I will never see you again,
we will never be apart
