No more sad goodbyes or warm hello's
no more to greet you with all of my heart
something happened that has no explanation
and this thing has torn us apart.
There was never a cross word or thoughts coated in anger
but many smiles I remembered with pride
there was always a kiss to help reassure you
but now days you only run away and hide…
hide from my eyes and what my eyes might start to see
what your eyes are saying to me…
that your love is over with no hope of redemption
and accepting this is how it must be.
What have I done or not done as you would have wished
that leaves you feeling this way
I have only ever loved you and hoped your life wonderful
and happiness be your blessing each day…?
I was always there to guide you but never just chastise you
and help you to rise when you fall
never would I desert you or let someone hurt you
but now days there only memories I recall.
As your father I always miss too… hold you and kiss you
you my first born, my pride, hope and truth
I only hope that one day you will remember me and find a way
to forgive me for always failing you too.
