Miss You Dad

I was not expecting that phone call. it was the last thing on my mind. Who'd ever think that you'd be gone. left with the memories, my broken heart, I miss you daddy, I miss you so.

we danced to butterfly kisses, now I'm missing you to pieces. always your little girl, and I'll try not to cry.

how much i miss your funny old man hair, and that goofy old man grin. the way you hugged good bye, tightly with a kiss on the cheeks. I'll miss you my father, the man who raised this girl. Daddy I still love you, and I always will

I live inside my head now, living with my guilt. living with my anger, living without you now. wish I called you sooner, or just a little more. I look forward to the memories now written on my wall.

why did you have to leave us? we wonder what it was. straight without a warning. another mystery to us. we miss you dad. my brother mother and I. why did you have to leave us? I don't want to cry. why did you have to leave us?

I have my memories now, and the vivid full on dreams. at least I get to see you there, a flitter of a memory. certain songs they make me think of you so bad, why did you have to leave us, damn I miss you dad. I really miss you dad.
