Did you forget that you were the person I looked up to?
You were always the man my father never was and never would be.
You were my protector, my provider.
So why did you have to do this to me?
I remember looking at you,
Standing over the sink, watching you wash dishes.
How can something so simply can be so memorable, and evil?
You were closing your eyes swaying from left to right..
Drifting off into your own empty mind..
I leave just to return to find that hours have gone by.
I can see your still in that same spot I left you in,
Eyes closed still in your mind, and dry cornered lips just parting.
Washing that one same dish you were washing hours ago.
Did you forget that you were the person I looked up to?
Then why did you let me down and show me you were just like the rest?
