This Can't Be.

Cleaning out the closet

Sorting your stuff... a shirt, your shoe

So hard to handle

Piece by piece, I'm breaking in two

Please tell me this is a lie

That your really coming back

Off on some extended job

Please tell me it's not your presence I lack

I dreamt of you last night

Did you know that, daddy?

You were still here with me

Mommy and I still had you in our lives

It was all just a joke

I was mad at you, eventually got over it

But this I'll never forget

All the pain, every bit as permanent

Cause you're never coming back to me

Mommy explained, I'll just have to make be

Your up in heaven now

It's God who you spend your days with

I miss you down here, Daddy

More than I like to wish

I miss your smile, your laugh

All your hugs and kisses,

It'd hard not having you here to lean on

Or to simply wish me goodnight

There's something I never got to do

So I send this to heaven, your hug goodbye

For Now, Daddy.
