Love's a lie

Papa

My life had been a mystery.

When I looked at my family tree,

I would feel incomplete.

Something was missing from my heart.

Then I found it,

My puzzles missing piece.

Though far from me

Never would you be far from my heart.

When I met you it all fell into place.

The plans were set for next time

Till daddy got the call

They drove even past nightfall 

You had known you were ill

You didn't let on

Soon you fell to far for us to reach you

I know that you loved us

We all love you

I will you at every turn

I wish I could have just told you one more time,

Seen you at one more glance,

Heard your voice once again.

I will forever wish I had just one more of everything with you Papa.

Two Sundays ago my papa passed away and I only had the chance to meet him once. I will miss him and that is why this poem goes to him.
