Another Day Without You

by Vanessa   May 22, 2007


I went to put flowers on your grave today,
But I didn't know what to say.
So in silence I just stood there, starring
I wish I could say I was uncaring
That you passing didn't affect me,
But you were not there to protect me.
Even though it was not my fist taste of death,
It destroyed everything I had left.
I felt unshed tears standing in my eyes
Sorrow filled my heart, my soul cried!

For all the times that you were there
Always showing me that you care,
Taking me, by my hand
Helping me to understand
Everything in life, has it's place
Regardless, I'll never forget your face.

Tears steamed down my check,
I sat in a daze for almost a week,
After I got the phone call, the day you died.
My pain I could not hide,
The memory still hurts today
I almost don't know what to say,
I miss you so very much
A father's loving touch,
All I have are memories of you,
It leaves me sad and blue.

Into this depression I have fell
And I have no one I can tell.
My desire is not for life,
My hunger is for this knife,
But I know you are watching from above,
Sending me a Father's love.
Crying from all the pain I feel so deep
Images on my mind, until I sleep,
Waking to a day brand-new
Another day without you.

    A good, storng piece, full of depth and emotion. My favorite stanza was the first, and in fact, I think it was the first four lines inparticularly.

    The emotion delivered overshadows any typos which you may decide to edit. I was so deep into the feelings I did not even notice them at first... great poem
