Gone

December 5th ,

the day my heart sank.

I never in my life expected to experience the loss of a parent,

it was too soon in life.

 

One phone call changed my life forever.

I didn’t believe it at first,

Dad you couldn’t be gone.

 Dad you wouldn’t leave me.

You wouldn’t leave me without telling me why,

but I was wrong.

 

So many questions,

questions that will never get answered.

Dad, I’m sorry,

What could I have done to change your mind,

to make you stay and answer my questions.

 

You’re in a better place,

in my heart is where you are.

I just wish I said one more,

 I love you.

This was something that had happened to me. I felt as though if I can relate to my poem strongly i would have a better outcome.
