The Journey Of My Life
The journey of my life
It began when I was twelve
The teenage angst began to delve
But I kept my head up tall
At first I did it for you most of all
The journey of my life
It began when God put you to rest
In my opinion, he only takes the best
To this day I still miss you, but I had to let you go
So you could be in Heaven and look down to watch me grow
The journey of my life
It began when I lost my rock, my strength
But I eventually found my own, at length
You held me in arms of your very own
And I was left to walk without anything known
The journey of my life
It ends when I meet you
And I know life will give me my cue
Until then I will love you more everyday
Because you made me perfect in every way.

This piece is about my life since I lost my dad at 12. I hope people can relate to the heartbreak of loss, as well as the struggle of growing up on your own.
