Missing you

Oh how I miss my sweet old dear father 

As I lay upon this grass I look into the starts 

Wishing I could see your face just one more time 

I would be a lair if I told you I was fine 

If I said I was okay 

Even you knew that was a lie 

Life has been hard 

But losing you have been harder 

I search for you dad each & everyday 

I know you with me each & every step of the way 

But living on without is hard 

Some days I’m okay 

And some days like today I’m not okay 

Dad I’m trying to pretend I’m okay 

Because I’m truly tried of everybody trying to take advantage of me 

You was kind 

You was understanding 

You was a listen ear 

You never used what I did or what I told you against me 

I just wonder would my husband every be like you
