I Am

I Am

A Poem by tarah morris

I am shy, scared and curious

I wonder what heaven looks like

I hear a knock on my door

I see you standing there, dad

I want to have more time with you

I am shy, scared and curious


I pretend that I am up in heaven watching wrestling with you

I feel the warmth of your hugs and kisses

I touch your hands and hold them tightly

I wonder if you can see me now

I cry for one more hug from you

I am shy, scared and curious


I understand that it was your time to go and that heaven was needing another hero

I say “I love you” over and over again

I dream about you all the time

I try so hard to accept the fact that you are gone

I hope you still hear me

I am shy, scared and curious

Your welcome!
' I touch your hands and hold them tightly '

Beautiful sadness, phrased with tenderness. No other words but, understanding only too well.
