A Prayer to My Daddy

A Prayer To My Daddy

dear god,
i send this prayer to you as quickly as i can
this prayer is for my daddy, lord
he's up there with you right now
and i know he's looking down upon me
i really wish i could see him at least once
but i know that's not going to happen
i just want to let him know that i love him
even though i never met him
i know he loves me, because i feel it in my heart
just tell him that i appreciate him watching over me
and i'm grateful that i have a father for a guardian angel
tell him to wait for me by those sparkling gates
when i see him i can run to him
so i can give him a hug and a kiss for the first time ever
also tell him that i know he'll be there with me on my graduation day
even though i can't see or touch him
i will also know that he'll be by my side when i'm getting married
but tell him not to get mad
when my step-dad walks me down the aisle
let him know that i will always be thinking of him
everyday and every night
send this to him also...
i love you and i miss you daddy
amen

My Destiny

My Destiny

all alone in this world
no one to turn to
for they don't care
they leave me standing here
looking around for someone
or something to help me find my way
but there is nothing
as my life is...nothing

in the distance i see
something or someone is moving my way
i can't quite make what it is
as it moves closer
inch by inch
a form comes into view
but it's not what i expect to be

i realize it just fog
and it's nothing
just my mind playing tricks on me
once again getting my hopes up
i know now that i'm doomed
doomed to be alone
for this is my destiny
