    father

    I looked into your eyes,
    I could see your will to live.

    I wanted to breathe for you,
    so you could just rest.

    I wanted to comfort you,
    and tell you it was alright
    you could stay if you like,
    I knew better,
    because God was already reaching for your hand

    Dear Daddy,I wanted to reach inside your body,
    to remove your pain.
    I remember how you would say"I"m alright",
    but deep down I knew you were hurting.

    You hardly ever complain,how was I to know you were so sick.
    You became so humble in your golden years.

    I believe  you are an angel now,
    I can almost invision your wings,
    and your humble smile.
    Good bye father and take your place in God"s kingdom.
    I will see you soon

    i think this poem is special. of a child and father bonding.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
