Daddy Is Gone

This a poem I wrote about my daddy...

you left us that day
on November twenty-eighth
you were really sick
you were only hanging on by a thread

you'll never see me graduate
or even get married
you'll never see you grand kids
you'll never see them grow

when you died that day
it was like a stab in the heart
you died so fast
I could not cope

I don't know what to do
without you by my side
you were my hero
the one I'd confide in

I just have this numb feeling
deep inside of me
that won't go away
no matter how much I try

I didn't want to accept the fact
that you were really gone
I mean you were my dad
the one I'd rely on

you weren't just my dad
but also my best friend
I told you everything
no matter how bad it was

I sometimes wonder
why you had to go
and why you couldn't stay
holding me just a little bit longer

I'd give anything
to just have one more day
with your arms wrapped around me
telling me everything will be okay

I can't believe
how long you've been gone
it'll be going on six years
since you left the world behind

I miss you daddy
each and every day
what I wouldn't give
to see your smiling face

I know now
that your not coming back
your truly gone
but I'll soon see you again

I will stay strong
I won't give up
I may not see you now
but your always in my heart

no matter what happens
you'll always be my daddy
I'll love and miss you
each and every day yet to come
