TwinklingStar Laydee's blog: "just notes of interest"

I wish my dad would just be here
To be with us; his kids and wife
Be part of all obstacles in this challenging life
In happiness and problems we struggled to survive.

I wish my dad would just see us grown
For he left us, it was still dawn
I was still young and his name was unknown
But all his memory to us had never been blown.

Without his presence, for me he's here
Because I am carrying and living by his name
Standing with pride and honour I bring
Wether I win or loose in all life's game.

I wish my dad would see my important day
Wearing my toga, holding my diploma
Standing in front of stage filled with confidence
In my heart shouting father's name having his dream.

A dream that now come true when he wished it in my birthday
The day that I last seen his face smiling to me
Holding my hand, telling me to be brave and have courage
Now, I wish him to be here, to see my success.

I wish my dad would just be here
To see his grandchildren running and play
Be with my family and watching us happily
Though he's not here, I remember him everyday.
