Father I Miss You

Father can you Hear my voice
Calling out your name
Thinking about your last days
When you were in pain
Buried deep down inside
Blanked out your disappearance
Till today I realized Your loss without endurence
Thoughts of your cheerful smile
Always joking all the while
You were showing all your love
Shown in what I've now become
Because of you I can dream
I can feel compassion
I can laugh and I can cry
You showed me how in fashion
When I thought you couldn't see
All the while you were watching me
When I thought you did not hear
You were Listening with an open ear
