To My Late Father
Overdue Gratitude
by fayesh
Daddy Dearest, though long gone
in my heart you remain strong When troubled all I need do is lie down and dream of you My hero, you come to smite the monsters in the dark night You never ever once knew how much I learned watching you Like the brave heart you gave me much of you in me they see You never understood why your mad moments made me cry wanting to just run away to wait for a better day when dark clouds would leave your face and a smile come in its place Dad, I did not tell you then You were a Prince among men. |

I was thinking about my late Dad the other day. I was not present when he died, so I just thought I would write this for him.
