Dad I Miss You...

This poem is about the death of my father (Douglas Wayne Everman)...he was killed in a motorcycle accident on his way to come get me from school when i was 10 years old...

Dad I miss you,
More than you will ever understand,
My memory will never fade,
When you use to hold my hand.

I was so young,
When you left me,
Now you will never get to see,
What your only son turns out to be.

I'll never forget that day,
When i asked you to come get me from school,
I was waiting anxiously,
And I thought everything was cool.

My mom came and got me,
And I knew something wasn't right,
When I looked into her eyes,
And saw a shocking sign of fright.

My mom took me to her office,
And told me the bad news,
I thought they were all lying,
And told myself it wasn't true.

Later on that day,
I heard my mom start to cry,
I tried to comfort her,
But broke down that night.

Dad I miss you a lot,
And wish you were here,
Every time I hear Douglas Wayne Everman,
I can't help but shed a tear.
