Daddy's News
When my surroundings get quiet,
My mind begins to wonder.
I begin to have thoughts,
Deep and truthful thoughts.
I remember moments I've had.
Like my dad trying to put the right words together,
Unable to break the worst of it.
When I hear the news I try to act strong,
But all I could do was break down.
All he wanted to do was talk to me about it
But I couldn't even bear to think about it.
My world seemed dark and looked hopeless.
All the while reality came crashing down,
Destroying my happiness and leaving me hopeless feeling.
