You held me in your arms And taught me how to fly You shared your heart with me You shared your smile You gave me all I have You made me all I am And showered me with love all the while But you never taught me how to live without you You never told me I'd be left alone You never said I'd feel this pain Now I'll never be the same Without you I feel My wings are made of stone I look back on the days When I was a child When I walked by your side Holding your hand The innocence of youth Kept sacred your life But the truth behind death I now understand Will I never again Relax in your embrace Share all of your thoughts Feel sheltered from harm When I close my eyes My broken heart cries To rest in the safety Of my father's arms |

Wow. I am very sorry that this happened. I can't imagine what it would be like to lose a parent. You wrote so beautifully, and it came right from the heart. Again, i'm sorry. Keep up the good work! |
