apart from each other, she
beat herself up for
not being enough
of a good daughter for you.
It killed her inside.
After all these years
and she's still a daddy's girl.
But now its too late.
So now I ask you,
what were you thinking about
as your last breath slipped
from your pale lips?
Did you see her in the back
of your mind? Did you
weep as you realized
you won't see her anymore?
How about when you
knew she couldn't call?
Even in death, were you cold
and heartless? She cried
for you. Several years
of pain now bubbling up.
I wish you could see
the kind of woman
you raised. But you won't ever
see it and that's your
loss. So many have
suffered from the issues you
caused in her lifetime:
mistrust, caution, and
insecurity. How can
a parent push their
child away as
you did so easily? One
thing I will always
do is show her that
you made a lethal mistake.
I'm sorry you had
to leave, but one day
she will know it was you know
made this happen. It
hurts her right now to
have to bear this burden, but
she'll be strong again.
