Life not measured by the number of breaths you take,
but the number of moments that take your breath away<3

I always knew,
The day would come,
For us to say goodbye.
So soon,
I didn't think,
Would be my day to cry.
Slamming doors,
Raising voices,
Watching you walk away.
Streams of tears,
Why must it be now,
For you to go astray?
You were here,
Then you were gone,
It isn't fair.
I loved you,
I'll miss you forever,
But you probably don't care.

I've lost a lot of people. My dad mostly. But i know he's still my father even if he isn't in my life.
