God's Will

My heart is broken

For ten long years

I don't understand

Why you're not here

You left me here all alone

And never said a word

I miss you like Hell

And find no peace on earth

Why did you leave?

Did you not love me anymore?

I've searched for the answers

And even knocked on Heavens door

I miss you so much

And feel like I can't be whole

I live with a broken heart

And one empty soul

I can't wait to see you again

But I know that I must

Life is so unfair

Your death so unjust

I miss you dad

And I know I always will

There's nothing I can do

I guess it's just God's Will

This poem is really beautiful..
Unfortunately I know loss and the pain never goes away..

Heaven must have Internet access, and your father must have read this and been proud of you. This is a great, emotionally raw piece that tugged at emotions I felt when I lost my grandfather. Brilliant write.

There's no easy way to get your feelings off your chest. It seem you have managed to get your feelings out well. Stay strong my friend.

I'm sorry for your lost. And, I'm sure your Dad would be proud of your talent here. Keep Writing!

A beautiful heartfelt cry of anguish. You have touched my heart and aroused my compassion.
You have a wonderful talent, Lonesome...I long to see you turn it to happier subjects. And I'm sure your Dad would also be pleased...
