I feel tears burning in my eyes as I'm listening to my peers I'm wishing someone could hear my crys I love you dad and I will pray you made me mad and I'm still wishing you could stay I am cold when your not here wanting you here for me to hold running down my cheek I feel every tear Lying here in bed putting away my fears with you in my head I realize I'm crying real tears
Reason for writing:
I wrote this poem on October 9, 2000 to my father which he died at the age of 39 years old on October 11, 1997. I am now 15 and i regret everyday that I can't see my dad's face or talk to him in a way that I can hear his voice. I wrote this poem because I miss him so much and one night I was thinking about him more than I usually do every night. I thought this is the way I could let people know that I do love my dad and i miss him so much but also telling people that I cry every night.
