Midnight strikes
and I hear your screams.
There stuck inside my head.
I lay down and hope for sweet dreams.
I find you instead.
Your face puts a chill on my soul.
I start sweating and wondering
if I'm gonna lose control.
You were once part of my life
but checked out way before you died.
How the fuck could you do such a thing.
At your funeral I cried.
I said I forgave you
as your lifeless body
laid in front of me.
Dad I meant it.
I can't say I don't
have regrets.
I wish you were a bigger
part of my life.
You had your reasons,
but I can't figure them out.
I gotta harden my heart to survive.
You left me behind
to deal with the pain.
You told people you were
proud of me but I don't
think you even knew my
telephone number.
Say what you want it
doesn't change the facts.
You were afraid to get too close.
I only know you in memory
now. You didn't even leave
behind your picture.
I remember every single moment.
I remember looking for you
at the front door of
Grandma's house wondering
when you would take me home.
That day would never come.
You scarred my heart
forever. Abandonement
tends to do that to a soul.
I waited for you.
Now you're gone.
The wait is no more.
