Looking back through the years, Remembering times that are so dear.. Though they are gone now and in the past.. The memories in my mind will always last.. Of a time I was but a little girl, Who thought my daddy was my world.. When I needed you Daddy, you were always there.. Now you're gone and it doesn't seem fair.. Though it's been almost two years since you died, I still feel the pain from deep inside. Oh Daddy, I still miss you so, And I just don't understand why you had to go.. And though I told you in the end, and made sure you knew, That I always loved you Daddy, and I still do... I know now I didn't say or show it near enough, I was too busy with a life of my own and stuff.. Things that weren't as important I can now see, Oh Daddy, how I wish I had done things differently.. I wish I had done things I didn't do, And I wish I hadn't done a few things I did do too.. But I can't go back in time to the start, Though I wish I could with all my heart.. If I knew then what I know right now, So many things would be different somehow.. You meant so much more to me than I let show, I should have spend more time letting you know.. You taught me so much about what a parent should be, And I always knew how much you loved me.. And though you are in heaven Daddy and not on this world, In my heart I will always be Daddy's little girl.. 04/19/98 By Emerald
