I know you'll be busy
When you're back at home
I know you'll forget me
More often than not

I know you'll find love
Over and over again
Without you by my side
What am I to do?

Life got much more enjoyable
Since you arrived here
Living seemed so easy
You lifted weights off me

How much can I take
When you're no longer here?
No longer by my side
Shushing me to silence

Peace came in your presence
And so did simplicity and grace
Loving became so easy
Smiling, second nature now

Please don't forget me
For all the memories
Will never be lost to me
They'll be kept locked

Far away in my heart
On a treasure island
Designed by our souls
Hidden from all evil

Keep in touch
Till I come to see you
And am allowed
To peep into your life

Even just a glimpse
Will do of seeing your smile
Even your tears will suffice
As long as you remember

That through it all
I will be here or there
Not to catch you
When you fall

But to prevent
Your fall
In the first place
My friend

Don't forget me
When it's all done
When we look back
At the good old days

Don't forget me
When I become but
A memory in a far away
Past, so quiet, so lovely

Honey, let us be friends
Till the sun goes down and
Lovers have stopped making love
And raindrops fill the Earth

Till the winter comes
And the bears go to sleep
And the Indians ain't got meat
And the horizons are no longer in sight

Daddy,
If you were here,
Or if I were there,
Either way,
If we were together,
I'd make you a cake today.

I'd add a few potions though;
One for Happiness,
One for Understanding and
One for Love.
Because you lack all of them.

So it'd be worth all that I forgave you for.
So forgiving you will be worth all the pain you gave us.
Because everyone deserves another chance.
Everyone deserves to be believed in and to be loved.
Including you.

So hereby,
I send you my love,
from the other side of the world.
And I hope that,
for once in your life,
you'll live a day
without having to think too much,
without having to rage
and without having to control everything.

I wish that one day you will find peace,
despite knowing your only little girl rejected you at age 10.
I hope one day you can forgive me for that.
And although I don't love you like most daughters love their dads,
God knows you gave me no reason to,
I really wish you all the best in life.

And if you want to talk,
I'm always open to change.
I'm still half your blood.
I still lived under the same roof as you for a good 10 years.

So..last of all,
I wish you a memorable & joyful father's day!
Live. Laugh. Love.

Have you ever seen the sun rise
After a big fat buffalo's stampede
Have you ever seen the sun rise
On a big fat salt lake in the West

Have you ever seen the moon shine
In unison like the stars in heaven
Have you ever seen the clouds darken
At a speed unmatched by light

Have you ever seen the loving eyes
Of someone who'd do anything for you
Have you ever seen the love
People are so eager to give

Have you ever stood still
To unbind yourself from the biases put before you
Have you ever stood still
To realize that you are so incredibly small

Have you ever stood still
That every big person started out small, too
Have you ever stood still
To love all the details

Have you ever stood still
To see the beauty all around you
Have you ever stood still
That you are loved

Kiss the sky
Embrace humanity
Despite its flaws

Its undefined feelings
Who bring us closer
To our inner core

Dream the sky away
It's worth it
I promise

I miss you,
More than the infinite,
Timeless number,
Our hearts cannot define.

I miss you,
The waves of efficient,
Self worth you gave me.
The feeling of clarity,
You stretched out,
across the shore.

I miss you,
Now the wind has changed,
And you no longer,
See me as who I know,
I could be.

I miss you,
Being your namesake sunshine,
Now I blend,
With the greyest skies,
And you just lie,

You just lie.
