If Heaven wasn't so far away, <br />I'd go see you tomorrow for Father's day. <br />Tell you how I've missed you, <br />And how I love you too. <br />I'd cry my eyes out as we talk, <br />Tell you all my worries as we walk. <br />Its the days like this when I realize, <br />It's been forever since I've cried. <br />I realized it's been days since I've wrote, <br />But it's not like you'll get this note. <br />I guess I write so just in case you some how see, <br />That you still mean so much to me. <br />I don't cry so I can stay Strong, <br />Strong for the girls, strong for mom. <br />I pretend I don't feel all the pain I do, <br />All this pain of missing you. <br />Days like this when it's all about Dad, <br />And I have to remember the one I once had. <br />The one I no longer get to hug or even see, <br />The one who was taken from us suddenly. <br />You think by now the numbness would still be there, <br />But no, it's now replaced by a feel, a need for tears. <br />Everyone says they have the best dad but they don't see, <br />The best dad is the one I have watching over me. <br />My very own guardian angel.<br /><br />Keli Mims<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/my-guardian-angel-47/
