Daddy

I call you my Daddy even though you are gone,
I think of you daily as I try to find a song.
You left me in life as though you were not through,
To do the things that I longed for, from you.

You were busy so much, I know I ate well,
You always provided and with that I do tell.
I grew up in my childhood, I seemed so alone,
The few moments we had and then I was grown.

There was much in my life that now I have learned,
I am sure as you look, your heart has now turned.
I see you looking down from the sky,
Wishing you'd been here to enjoy while alive.

Deep in my heart I find your spirit there,
Your wishes for me have all been spared.
So Daddy, don't worry for I've made it anyway,
You will always be in me, and there you will stay.
