white as snow,
cold as the tundra

as high as everest
thats where she rests

surrounded now by
the thoughts and prayers

soul to gentil
life to short

younger cousins older now
held so close on the last walk

heavy to carry
heart and soul incased

angel on earth
finally free to fly

You are my sunshine
warming my skin as you touch it

without you, my world grows cold and shady
the plants' aren't green,
and the birds won't sing to me in the morning.

the nights are starless,
clouded and cold.
with no sun the moon won't show.

My days will be rainy till you
come home.

but i always know you are there
right behind the clouds.

We walked side by side
For 12 years
But your story has ended
And a new chapter has started

For years I heard your stories
Rode along for your adventures
In far off lands
Beyond the magic curtain

And now It is my turn
To venture off into
The unknown that is
My future

The stories of evading
ungers and izzards
Turned in to
Unwritten essays

As I remember
Your Stories
Instead of creating
Mine own

Walk along with me
My friend
As we both head out
Into the unknown

We are at the end of an era
And with the end of one
Comes anew

The term daddy issues has such a negative connotation,
But what if the issue is he treated my mom and I so well
That I don’t know if I can find a man as good as him.

Now that I’m older I see all he did for us,
Worked long hours and missed important events,
so he could support us.
He was always there when we needed him
And taught us that we can do anything we wanted
Whether it was using power tools or being a princess.

What happens now that I found that man.
The man I was told all my life to look for,
And he stole my heart then ran away.
For once I think saying I have daddy issues,
Is beneficial

I always wanted to run free as a wild horse
And never let anyone rein me in,
Then you grabbed me by the hand and ran beside me.
The adventures, stories and late nights
Never did I feel so alive as when I was.

You never tried to slow me down,
You let me run free and you ran with me,
But life out ran us baby, and pulled you with it.
For once in my life I actually wanted to be roped in

Never will I admit that someone tamed me
But honey you did the impossible.
You took my running drive and taintd the green fields.
The then vivid green grass is now a dull lifeless yellow.

I just want to run free in the heartland once again,
But now I see that having a partner to run with
Will always make things brighter.
Not tamed but together.
Running free.
