life ...

A 4 letter word

so short yet so overwhelming

sometimes the downs over power the ups

and it feels like you're falling through a dark steep tunnel

and no matter how hard you look for the light at the end of it ... it never shines

 

the sad filled tears of the little girl who lost the man who was supposed to be her hero

how unfair it is to lose a father not only once but twice in one lifetime

 

no matter how strong the anger

it's never enough to numb the pain

 

this life thats been torn apart

holding on to the last remains of determination and strength

trying hard to move forward while the wight of the past drags behind

 

put on a brave face for the world little girl

daddy's not going to come save the day ...

ahh....but

weather you know it or not, a part of him still lives on ....in and through YOU. 

Youll find as time goes on...that his light shines  bright, and in such a manner that cannot be 

attributed to no one or no thing else. And its the timeless influences you shared that will enable him to still save your day ...but through you
