Wait By The Gates For You -- :-(

Daddy Let Me Go Today! J

The bright lights are coming closer
Its starting to blind my eyes
I feel a hard blow to my chest
And I hear loud hurting cries

Im on the solid road
My own blood is all around me
What is going on?
Someone please tell me

It all goes black once more
I feel my body rise
There I am in a casket
Underneath the cloudly sky

My body is as white as a ghost
It looks so helpless and weak
I look up to see my daddy
Hes crying too much to speak

And as I reach out to touch him
Feeling nothing, neither does he
I myself starts to cry
Daddy I love you I scream!

I have so much to live for
So much dreams and no time
It doesn't make much sense
Why a little girl has to die

I see my daddy go to me
Kisses me softly on my quiet head
I run up to him to say Im sorry
I love you pumpkin, he says.

I love you too I scream
This just isnt right
Im not supposed to die yet
8 years isnt a life

I just cant go yet daddy
Grandmas' in heaven too?
Oh man! She's so grumpy!
What will her n' I do?

Grandpas' up there too though
I can't wait to see his face!
He's always been my hero
With such beauty and grace

Will God like me Daddy?
Will he be just like you?
My new soldier to protect
New Daddy to replace you?

You're the only one for me Daddy
The way you tied my shoes
The way you read me stories
You know me through and through

Please take my hand Daddy
And dont ever let me go
Im just not set to leave you
I may never be ready though

I look around for mommy
But shes no where to be seen
I think God took her too that night
Daddy, Where is she?

I glance over at another box
As everyones' gathered around
She looks so beautiful and still
As they put her in the ground

A tear falls from my eye
As her face is still as stone
My world starts to spin
I know that I'm alone

This just isnt fair God
I sit and pray on my knees
Please just let me stay
I'm all my Daddy needs

Now that mommys gone
And you took her away
Daddy sits in solitude
For the rest, of his tearful days

I run back over to you daddy
But you just dont know Im there
I dont know what to do
Daddy, Im really scared

Why arent you listening?
Im beginning to get mad
Im right here in front of you
so please dont look so sad

I glance up to see a light
A voice saying its time
NO! I scream I cant leave my daddy
Im all he has in life

A hand reaches out to me
I tremble, as he takes my own
No Daddy! Help me!!
I dont want to leave you here alone

You look up as if you know
That God wants me to leave
I love you Pumpkin you say
But please dont forget me

Daddy, I wont I promise!
Ill always remember you!
Ill be waiting by the golden gates!
I gotta go Daddy. I love you!
