Dear Dad

The nights are long, when the sky is dark

During the day I look at the clouds and wonder if you are looking down.

Are you smiling at all of us or do you wear a frown.

We are trying our best to get through life

It has been tough to fulfill your request and spark no fights

Within the family or with just with people you knew

The rumors are bad hurtful and all about you.

Mom is doing fine she is adjusting somewhat

She will never be the same though but I guess she has always been tough.

She has turned to your demon that possessed you,

I dont know if it is to kill the pain, or remain close to you

The bottle is no answer this I know you found out

It took your life your spirit and your body without a doubt.

Little brothers are fine in spite of it all

Trying to muddle through life and make it without a fall.

I am okay just under alot of stress,

With school and court and bills but despite it all I still am blessed

Blessed to have the time I had with you

I will cherish it always no matter what people say or do.

I know you would be proud and that is all that matters

I almost done with school, life is good at home

You always said that I had God in my home,

Peaceful it is here up on the mountain

Alot going on always but nothing we cant handle.

Well, I got to go for now dad it has been nice

To drop you a line or two, now this is twice.

It makes me feel better to know that I can

Put it in writing and cover the span

Between heaven and earth Between you and I

I love you forever, not forgotten but goodbye

Talk to you later as I always do

some people would say its crazy But I just Love you
