Full room of people
smiles on their face
and I couldn't feel
more displaced
their talking about the good days
when you were alive and well
but all I can focus on
is your empty shell
I try to block their words
hide from the facts
by keeping the drinks flowing
keeping the smile showing
but no one truly knowing
the bitterness that's growing
that's called "ME"
I remain silent
but allow my mind to race
and all it does
is load slideshows of your face
125 YEARS is what you promised me
I use to laugh, and say, "yeah right"
but their wasn't a doubt in my mind
you wouldn't be right
I would have settled for another year
maybe three
but you left way to suddenly
So I sit in the full room of people
with a smile on my face
no one knowing
what's truly taking place!
I miss my dad everyday!!!
