It is very difficult for me to find the words to express what is in my heart right now. You were always there for me, protecting me against the harsh realities, yet quietly teaching me to be strong. I hear your words spinning around in my head, telling me that worry will change nothing and that crying will only get your face wet. All the while, doing or saying anything to bring a smile to my face. If a tear fell, your voice would soften and that tough outer shell of yours would melt when you hugged me and told me that everything would be alright. Thank you Dad - This one is for you.
Forever and Always, your loving daughter, Susan
As My Tear Softly Falls
And he puts his boat in the water for the last time
A tear will fall for the last time
I wipe the tears from my face with your old shirt for the last time
I cry about the last time I said goodbye to you
More than oceans separate us
More than continents themselves
But in my heart you will remain
Along with everything you taught me
Memories seep from my veins
Vivid pictures of you lay softly in the back of my mind
But you now rest in the arms of the angels
Everyday I wish you were here to hold me in your arms
And comfort me through every obstacle in life
And such a thought brings me weeping on my knees
And every day I picture you
I remember you
And every day I struggle with the reality the you're gone
And with that struggle I make it through another da
Everything happens for a reason
Yours was to build me up
And no one can ever tear me down
You taugt me all you could in your time with me
And now my only job is to remember and never forget
Rain is nothing but tears to me
Tears from a man who wasn't good at sharng his emotion
Although going on without you upsets me
Everything reminds me
I'm not afraid to cry
I pretend to be ok everyday
And it's always hard to deal with the pain of losing you
And force that smile when it just won't come.
The wake comes off the bow
The anchor is reeled in
Another tear softly falls
Cherishing Life Sharing Forever
