You put on that suit
I will slip on that dress...

Give thanks to the year
Another year alive...

Empty on the inside
Long ago she lost her soul...

Awakened in the night
By my own screams...

Unfulfilled promises
swept under the rug...

Silence fills the house
Squeezing in every crack...

She bats her mascara eyelashes
Flips her perfectly placed hair...

Dear Daddy,
I learned the ABCs today...

Continue to walk
down the dark road...

You can not yet see me
Or hear the words I will say...

Another night left alone
trying to make sense of everything...

Just wanted to say
I love you...
