First and formost I used to be WindSong. But I had somethings happen to me over the last few years and I lost all my information for that account. So I created a new one...blackrosepetal...This is my first post in years. The first of many. My father passed on April 27, 2008...the inspiration is flowing...

**************
“Daddy, where are you?

I can’t hear you,
I can’t see you
I can’t feel you.

You’re presence isn’t strong anymore,
Where are you going?

DADDY! I need you!

Why did you leave me?
It was the best for you
But worst for me.

You’re gone and I’m alone.
It’s all changed, daddy.
It’s not the same anymore.

I miss you Daddy.

You are safe and happy again.
I am scared and sad again.

I said I was gonna be strong,
I was wrong. It hurts.

Hurts to say I love you
To a headstone.

Hurts to say I miss you to the
Air.

Your voice is trailing off with the wind…

Where are you, Daddy?”

Dear Blackrosepetal,

I'm sorry about your loss.

It's good to see someone posting from New York City.

Love Bobby

I am sorry for your loss

The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone.
