In My Mind the Years I Missed
In My Mind the Years I Missed
It was her very first day of school
I walked with her to school that day
And she held my hand all the way
We walked together quiet and sad
A little girl and her loving dad
Into the school, I led
But I almost cried when she said
“Daddy, Daddy, please don't go
Please don't leave me alone here
I'll miss you if you go”
And I might need you; can't you stay
My little Daughter, please don't cry
You'll be okay, so dry your eyes
You have me in your heart
We're together, though...
It was her very first day of school
I walked with her to school that day
And she held my hand all the way
We walked together quiet and sad
A little girl and her loving dad
Into the school, I led
But I almost cried when she said
“Daddy, Daddy, please don't go
Please don't leave me alone here
I'll miss you if you go”
And I might need you; can't you stay
My little Daughter, please don't cry
You'll be okay, so dry your eyes
You have me in your heart
We're together, though...

Plans
Write about making plans,” she said,
and I laughed –
“oh honey, you know I suck at that!”
and she smiles, “exactly…”
This girl understands my poetry.
How it’s always all about the anguish
of making elaborate plans
that I’m not equipped to execute
and perceiving beauty
that I’ll never be able to hold.
How I can languish in the heartache
of imagined futures and friendships and feats
that I am powerless to actualize
and how,
despite the apparent misery,
I still choose this stubborn...

Ivy
Thought it was impossible
Maybe even debatable
that a mothers love could grow
Since it's inevitable
I wrote this song
'cause I wanted you to know
My love's like ivy
Growing higher
than the tallest tree
My love's like ivy
Imperfect vines sprouting
hundreds of leaves
My heartbeat goes on
even when I'm gone.
My heartbeat goes on
when you play this song
Few years have gone by
my beautiful baby girl
Had to teach you to be strong
in this cold frozen world
My little queen ...
Maybe even debatable
that a mothers love could grow
Since it's inevitable
I wrote this song
'cause I wanted you to know
My love's like ivy
Growing higher
than the tallest tree
My love's like ivy
Imperfect vines sprouting
hundreds of leaves
My heartbeat goes on
even when I'm gone.
My heartbeat goes on
when you play this song
Few years have gone by
my beautiful baby girl
Had to teach you to be strong
in this cold frozen world
My little queen ...

To my daughter that never was
I sit in a passenger seat
watching night’s wheels
drive towards the car
noise
and colour
softly blurring
I wonder
if that too was what
you were, my dear
passing light
kaleidoscopic
nothingness
a journey we once took
together in the deathly
December
dark
watching night’s wheels
drive towards the car
noise
and colour
softly blurring
I wonder
if that too was what
you were, my dear
passing light
kaleidoscopic
nothingness
a journey we once took
together in the deathly
December
dark

dear dad
dear Dad,
you left before I could even grow up
so many times I wanted to call you on the phone
you were out of my reach
behind the veil where mortals can't cross
I'm given time to pause
to go over my mistakes
you enter my dreams with words of advice
I wish I could always take them
you have a view that I can't see
one of the great universe
you see where I fit within it
I hear you in my mind talking to me
telling me in life you were blind
you didn't know the calling placed on my life
or what just...

I wish I could always take them

My Daughter Is Not Here To Give You Your Present
Merry Christmas. I'm sorry that my
daughter is not here to give you
your present. I've decided
to save her the trouble
and do that for her.
So, don't you want
to strip and
hump me
now?

That’s love
It’s hard loving someone and letting them go . Yes you were their first love and you nurtured them to live . Unapologetic and fiercely independent so they can
stand on their own feet and express themselves and experience their own journey on this earth . It’s letting go that love is truly made up of . A coat embroidered with firsts followed by more . A tailoring of lengthening the material with darts to fit the structure of seconds , thirds and more of its kind . Truly loving another from the top of their head to their toes is found in freedom and choices to find themselves with others...
