My Life
My life has taken a twist,
Never to be the same forever more,
Makes me cry and clinch my fist,
My heart aches…it is so sore.
I lost my father from this life,
I loved him so much more than I ever said,
I know he lived his life,
Knowing he was loved…even if it was unsaid.
Things now are so different,
Like sand flowing through a funnel,
Wish someone would give me a hint,
Life is strange…like living in a tunnel.
I miss my father a lot,
His laughter and his advice,
A hole in my life has bee shot,
It hurts me…like my life is in a vice.
It’s hard to face the fact that he is not longer with us,
That he isn’t here to give his love,
He might wonder what is all this fuss,
We miss you, dad…And you still have our love.
What can keep me going everyday,
It is my wonderful family,
Without their love each day,
The only way…life can still be happy.
I hope and pray he approves of this poem,
And the many more I will write,
I just want anything I write to do him justice,
I want him to be proud of me…to do this right.
