CHAZDAD's blog: "a poem written for me"

My Dad, he tells a lot of lies. He never did before. But from now until he dies, He'll tell a whole lot more. Ask my dad how he is, And because he cant explain, He will tell a little lie, Because he cant explain the pain. Ask My Dad how he is, He'll say "I'm alright." If that's the truth please tell me, Why does he cry each night? Ask My Dad how he is. "I’m fine. I’m well. I’m coping" For God’s sake Dad, just tell the truth. Tell them your heart is broken. He’ll love me all his life, I loved him all of mine. But if you ask him how he is, He’ll lie and say he’s fine. I am here in Heaven, I cannot hug him from here. If he lies to you don’t listen Just hug him and hold him near. On the day we meet again, We’ll smile and I’ll be bold. I’ll say, "you’re lucky to get in here, Dad, With all the lies you’ve told!"
