Letter To You
Thinking back on how my life is turning out
And all the things I want in my future
Just makes me think of the past
A past that goes as far as you being alive
Which really seems like a lifetime
I don't remember the last time I actually tried
Tried to think about you.
The you that goes deeper than an image.
The you that made something out of yourself to make your dreams come true.
Even though you and mom didn't work out
Well, work out in the way your daughters wanted.
But I learned that you taught us something that no one has ever taught me
You taught us to never give up on your dreams
And if we love doing something
Be the best at it and keep it fun
You showed us that life isn't perfect
But playing the cards that are served
And do it to the best we can.
You made us know that we will get
hurt, pushed down, discouraged, and beat down
and you forced us to get up
Put our armor on and fight back
I miss you dad.
