a fading memory once guiding light
my dad,a presence that shone so bright
i’d wake up to his smile,his loving gaze
now his memory fades,like autumn’s haze
he called me his little princess
a treasure so rare but now I’m just a nuisance
a burden to share,the truth,a choice I made
a path that I’ve chosen leads me to tears
and a heart that’s sad,I reach out to him
with a cry and a plea hoping he’ll hear me
and understand me but silence greets me,
a hollow,empty space leave me longing,
with a heart that aches,I need him now
more than ever before but like sand he slips
away and I’m left with more questions,tears
and a heart that’s sore yearning for the dad
i had ,the love we had before
