Letter To My Daughter Part II

You walked away without pretense

I looked your way 

Hesitant

 

You walked away without recourse 

I tried to speak

With no remorse

 

You walked away without a sound

For that my heart

Can not rebound

 

You walked away, so far away

Before too long

The distance great

 

I will not breathe another day

Without you close

My heart will break

 

I will not sing another song

Without the tears 

To follow on

 

I will not try to understand 

Why you left

This shattered man

 

My hope is crushed

My dreams are bare

The nightmares real

Still you’re not here

 

This darkened silence

Cast to me

From yours is truly

Death to we

 

Can only wish that life will spare

This hurt I have

From ear to ear

 

Can only gaze upon the stars

To wonder where

O where you are…
