Last Words

Our last words still enter my mind.
Those words were so final, lasting through time.
Now here I stand by your side once more.
I remember the words that we spoke once before.
A tear slides slowly down my face
as I desparately ache to feel your embrace.
A hug to say, "I love you and forgive."
There's a place in my heart where you'll always live.
You ly so still in your casket adorned.
Why do I feel so lonely and scorned?
If only I could say two things to you now,
I'd say I love you and always will, I'd vow.
I loved you, Daddy, during all those years.
Life is not always what it appears.
I pray that you are in Heaven now
and can see these words I'm writing down.
They come from the heart,
where dreams and hopes exist.
For the rest of my life, you will always be missed.
Goodbye, Daddy. I hope we meet again,
in a place where hurt and anger we mend.
A place where peace and love are shared.
I hope you know how much I cared.
Life is so short...a gift from above.
Make each moment last for the ones you love.
