Daddy by Rhesa R. Armstrong
The night that you died
Was the worst night of my life
I've never before
Felt so much strife
I was so confused
I didn't know what to do
Because from that point on
I had to live without you
I loved you so much
Even though sometimes we would fight
I loved you so much
That it all hit me that night
It happened that night
My worst nightmare came true
For that night
Was the last night with you
I try not to cry
I try to be strong
But each day is so hard
Since you've been gone
I think of the memories
And the things from the past
Because those are now the only things
That are left to last
Every time I go out
When I have things to do
I always find something
That reminds me of you
Whether I go out to eat
Or have things to do
Or listen to the radio
I'm reminded of you
There are so many things
That I have yet to do
Things that I wanted
To share with you
Like getting married
And you giving me away
Or having my children
And you watching them grow each day
I miss you so much
I don't know what to do
I wish you could come back
If only for a few
There were so many things
I feel were left unsaid
Now I love you daddy
Just lingers in my head
I don't know if you know
Just how much I loved you
But I loved you more than anything
And I just wish you knew it was true
Its hard for me daddy
Without you here
Now I find myself daily
Surrounded by tears
I go out to the cemetery
Where they laid you to rest
And I just cant believe
That there is where you nest
It all happened so quickly
It seemed like a dream
It doesn't feel right
It just feels like a scheme
I know that its real
And I'll never forget you
But I just don't know
Without you what to do
We all loved you
Brant, Seth, Mom, & I
But we all know
This isn't good-bye
You'll truly be missed
By everyone, dad
Whether it be by your family
Or the friends that you had
But I think out of everyone
I'll miss you the most
Because of the fact
That we were so close
For you are my father
And I miss you so
But I guess it was time
For me to let you go
No I wont forget
Not even for a day
But I must wake up
And realize things will be okay
I know you're still watching
I know you still care
Even though you are not
Physically here
I'll see you again someday
But until I do
I just want you to know one last things
Daddy, I love and miss you
