As I look back now
And I remember all the good times we had
I think of you
And tears come to my eyes
I know you walk
The earth with me
And in my heart
But never being able to talk to you
Never seeing your smile
Never hearing you laugh
It kills me inside
You were the wind beneath my wings
You held me up when I was sad
You were always there
And I took it all for granted
Now I take it back
I should have done something
Said thank you
Anything
To let you know
How grateful I was
That you were there
But what I beat myself up most about
Is the fact
That I never did anything for you
In return
I hate myself
So much
I love you dad
You are the only person
I can really call dad
You taught me a lesson
Never give up
You’ll always pull through
I love you dad
Like I can never love my own dad
I’ll always remember you
In my heart
And in your footsteps
I shall walk
My son
Shall bear your name
Forever and always
I love you Roy
The father I never had
