I see your pain when you are not looking

Published on October 27, 2004 By Nixonspawn In Life Journals

I saw it yesterday when you were playing with your granddaughter
I saw it when you were in the hospital having seizures
I see it when you're not looking
when you go back home to your reclusive hideaway
your pain will linger in my head
you will leave half of it behind with me

even though you don't think i see
I think of it and hurt alongside you
I see your pain, my one and only daddy
I just wish I could take it all away
instead of letting it infect you all over

Pain in the head
Pain in the heart
it's all over you
as night is dark

I'll miss you daddy, when you go
I always do when you are not here with me
I waited my whole life to be with you
and I will always treasure the little time we spend together

I'll feel your pain when you're not looking.................

I let my dad read it.....it brought tears to his old eyes and to mine.
he told me it was the most beautiful thing he's ever read........
if that doesn't bring tears of joy and pride to a daughter's eyes, I don't know what will!

there is no wonder if you say your father and your were tearful when you had read it. indeed it is a nice way of putting love in words. you succeeded in each and every word of it. i can read in between the lines. there is no gift that any kid can give to her father than this lovely pasaage.

I am impressed with your work. you are blessed with a special skill of puttig thoughts in lovely way.
