daddy

    

heaven extended its hand to you

forced your soul to depart

separated us apart

when i was just about to blow

the fourth candle on my cake

   

you left me just like that

mother earth swallowed you whole

led you through the eternal hole

and laid you on the golden slumber

in  the best chamber forever

i don’t really miss you, though…

never dream about you either…

you are just a picture hanging on the cracked wall

old and dusty, uninterestingly dull…

i am sorry i don’t even hang any…

   

did you love dogs or did you raise roosters?

did you play chess?

did you prefer the black label to bloody mary?

i have no clue…

did you let me sit on your laps?

did you comb my hair?

did you sung  lullabies before i sleep?

did you tickle my tummy and toes?

did you watch me giggle?

what was your favorite color?

did you know mine?

i bet you liked black

i love blue,  it’s so true  

  

just enjoy your time up there dad…

sing nice hymns with michael and gabrielle

one day i’ll join you

when heaven extends its hands to me

carrying my soul to join the heavenly choir

   

never worry about me dad,

i am more than just fine 

i am in complete content    

to be alone...
