Caricamento in corso...

Every Tear.

You were the one I looked up too and my first best friend
the one I wanted to dress like and fight for pretend
some of my best memories were always with you
Hunting, fishing, camping are the things we liked to do.
 
I remember when I first realized that someday you would die
at 5 years old I was confused and scared and that made me cry
I sat on your lap as you and mom told me it would be alright
then I went back to bed and was able to sleep through the night.
 
I remember the bus ride that caused a lot of fear
You were like super man tossing that guy on his rear
you protected our family for so many years
and it saddens me now and feels my eyes with tears.
 
I know how great of man we all know you to be.
You always helped others in their time of need.
You lent your hand and expected nothing In Return.
Not being able to be there for you and hold you is my concern.
 
With out you I would not be the man I am today
Good or bad you taught me how to be a man anyway
I learned both from your greatness and your mistakes
And seeing you lay there like this oh my heart breaks.
 
So as you lay there asleep just know my heart is there holding onto all the things we have shared.
And know I understand and I’ll be strong because I know you’re scared.
For so long in my life because of you I had nothing to fear.
So I’m right here bud I’ll stay strong behind every tear.
 
I love you dad I so hope you know!
