I remember when they came to the door Thats when I knew something was up I knew something was wrong But I wasnt sure what They made me go upstairs While they spoke to mom As I went up My mind filled with wonder Where are you daddy? And why arent you here? I know somethings wrong Because your friends are here, and you are not. As I sit in question I have a thought A thought to explain why your not here & I thought it was just a thought I thought to myself: Hes dead But then I said no Hes my daddy and he's fine You were in perfect health And you had absolutely nothing wrong You were perfect and flawless And you were my daddy After I snapped out of this horrible thought Mom screams from downstairs I hear her burst out in tears and yell Oh my god! Are you serious? A short while later I am called back downstairs Mom sits with Emily and me on the couch She is upset And something is wrong She tells me and Emily Your two little girls Who love you with all their hearts She tells us this: "Your father was in a car accident." I immediately start to cry! But I calm down a bit To hear more of the story I ask mommy, I ask her if youre alright She begins to cry And tells me no he didnt make it
