What do you do when all the pain won't go away? <br /> <br />Even though you're gone, I still have to stay. <br /> <br />As the days go by, I miss you more and more everyday. <br /> <br />I miss hearing all the funny things you used to say. <br /> <br />Time was well spent when you were here. <br /> <br />But I can't quit thinking of that smile from ear to ear. <br /> <br />I know if you were here right now things would be a lot better. <br /> <br />I wouldn't have to pretend like I was writing you a letter. <br /> <br />I know you are up in heaven having a blast. <br /> <br />So I should stop thinking about the past. <br /> <br />You know I won't see you at Graduation. <br /> <br />But I wish I could see your love and appreciation. <br /> <br />I know you will be watching down upon me. <br /> <br />Looking with that 'look' so happily. <br /> <br />I know I've had a couple of dreams. <br /> <br />But they were all so short it seemed. <br /> <br />I want to apologize for not being in your presence as much. <br /> <br />But trust me, I would take it all back just for your loving touch. <br /> <br />I just want you to know that you'll be in my heart forever. <br /> <br />So hopefully things will get better. <br /> <br />It's so hard to say Goodbye Dad, I wish this didn't have to be so sad. <br /> <br />I wish you could have had one more chance, so I could see that special glance. <br /> <br />I wasn't ready for you to go but God needed to use that special Halo. <br /> <br />I know this all happened in the past, but I have so many memories that will always Last! <br /> <br />I miss you so much! RIP Dad, I will be thinking of you ALWAYS! <br /> <br />This poem was written on May 8th 2008.<br /><br />Emily Jenkins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-miss-you-dad-3/
