My Dad Leroy

My dad's name is Leroy
As you can see
The title above states so explicitly

He had two girls
I was one you see
I was the smallest of the two
He loved us unconditionally

My dad's name is Leroy
He came from across the sea
My mom and him wanted to do something differently

My dad's name is Leroy
He had demon you see
A demon called alcohol
It changed his moods drastically

Sometimes he's was laughing
Sometimes he's was sad
Sometimes he's was silent
Sometimes he's was mad

My dad's name is Leroy
A demon was his friend
It was no where around
Once it was the end

My dad's name is Leroy
He held a lot inside
Never let us girls know
Always had a twinkle in his eyes

What I remember most
When he came to my meet
The pride that he showed
Watching me compete

Am I a daddy's girl ?
I guess I am
Sitting here writing this
Tears falling on this pen

My dad's name is Leroy
Making sure you got that.
