Wish You Were Here....
Five years have passed
I’ll never forget the day
Someone rang to tell me
That you’d gone away.
The hurt is the same
Like an open wound
There are days
I don’t utter a sound.
Some days the pain is stronger
It makes me sick and weak
I can’t stand this much longer
I just sit here and weep.
I’ve shut my private door
And let no one in
Locking myself in a box
They try, but I won’t give in.
You were like a rock
Strong, faithful and true
What worth has my life
Now I don’t have you.
I was your only child
Daddy’s little girl
I took my own path
But was still part of your world.
I was not the best
Guilty of neglect
But you know daddy dearest
I had so much respect.
I always loved you
My dad, my star
Now my pain is
To worship you from afar.
I love you now
As I did back then
I just hope... one day
I will see you again.
I am so proud of you
Brave and strong to the end
Now when asked “how are you?”
There is no need to pretend.
We all love and miss you so much, sleep well
and take care of all who went before you.
Forever in my heart x

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
