We used to watch TV together <br />ESPN <br /> <br />He would be lying on the floor <br />on his side <br />with his head propped up <br />by an elbow on the carpet <br />because it was more comfortable <br />then our old couch <br /> <br />I would lie in front of him <br />A little girl <br />happy in his arms <br /> <br />and now <br />i've forgotten <br />how I used to wait <br />for him to come home <br />from work <br />and lie in front of the TV <br /> <br />I hope I'll see you soon <br />Daddy <br />I hope the guards <br />let me in <br />after a year <br />of waiting outside the cell.<br /><br />Erica Francis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/daddy-7/
