Father's day

by jenna grace   Jul 10, 2006


Children running all around
to wish their daddy's the very best
but where is mine to be found?
well: he is where he now nests

you might think that sounds funny
but what i mean, is that he's 6 feet down
and nothing can bring him back,not even money
so...i just sit and frown

just 3 months ago
my daddy went away
and my heart, you cannot sew
i just wish, i could have him back on this special day

he was only 38
the day he passed away
why couldn't he stay longer? why couldn't he just wait? wait for the day i got married? and wait to watch my children play?

i guess the answer is: that this is IT
you can't change the past
and i won't throw a fit
but: my time with him, went by so fast

but. my dad wasn't dumb
see...he left me with my other dad
who loves and takes care of me,
and he really treats me right,but most of all he loves my mum
so, this father's day I'll try not to be sad

i have to be happy, that i had those 13 years
and that i still have my other dad
i know I'll still have tears
but hopefully, the tears come from memories and not from being sad

so Dad
happy father's day
i guess I'll never understand, but i do know you wouldn't want me to be sad
i love and miss you so much...but apparently, this was your only way...

happy fathers day dad

love always. Jenna bean
