Broken

To my father may he R.I.P

Broken
Days pass and I remember all the times we had 
Times when it felt like I had all the time with you in the world. 
 
I felt like nothing in the world can hurt me because my daddy was there
We would go to the beach and the sun seemed like it would be shinning forever
 
Years have passed as we grow older I see you 
In your chair just sitting with salt and pepper hair and avocado skin 
 
The men in scrubs say we’re not going to have you forever 
 
Tears flow like water flowing out of the bath tub and soaking the living room carpet
 
Hearts are broken in pieces and I don’t think they can ever be put together the right way
 
Is anything going to matter when knowing this sorrow is eating me alive
 
I would not ever be able to hold your hand again 
 
Knowing that your going to go high in the heavens makes me close my eyes and imagine I was there with you 
 
Holding your hand and you telling me that you’ll always be with us
I cry out at night “Please Daddy don’t go don’t leave me” “ Please stay forever why do you have to go”
I’m out of words to speak there is no other way to say how much I’ll miss you

Expressing the way I was feeling helped me a lot and glady my father got to read this before he passed
