i never seen him much as my childhood
passed by,but when ever i did see him id always
ask but why.
as i grew older and wiser as so did he we stayed
more in contact and that was a blessing to me
graduation came i didnt think he would show
but he sent me a card say ing im proud and that you
should know
it was heartbreakin in one since that he wouldnt
see, as i walked into this world without knowledge
of how hard life could be
as the years went by i would call him each day
say i love you daddy without nothing else to say.
but time came to pass when the news had arrived
that my daddy was ill theres a chance he might
die.
he got to see the grandchildren that he never
met,
but that promise to see them i was happy he kept.
he may not be here in body and soul, but the memories
stay alive in my mind even when i grow old.
