Dear Dad, three years since you left,
Mom, sis, and I are fine...

Cut the bindings
Erase the rules...

Searching in a sea
Drowning in the dreams...

It's gnawing at my being
It's tearing at my flesh...

I never did know you,
it pains me that you are gone...

I wish I understood
the need for more...

He wanted to drink his pain away
As he brought the bottle to his lips...

I feel my heart beating
Swelling with adoration...

This thought came to me, just the other day
I wish I could put it in words easier to say...

I love you he says
With truth in his eyes...

I can't believe you
Broke my heart...

Well what if the universe decides
to one day quit expanding...
