Why Daddy, Why?

I walked into the room to see you lying there in a puddle of blood

I fall to my knees

Tears rolling down my face

Screaming at the top of my lungs

I pick up the phone, dial 999

But I was too late

You were already gone

Now I spend my days wondering

Daddy why did you have to end your life?

Didn’t you know it’s hurt me in the end?

We were so close

And now we’re nothing

Now I’m left here, alone

Crying myself to sleep

Hospital stay after hospital stay

Wondering where tomorrow will take me

Why did it have to be you and not me?

I’ve tried so many times

It only took once for you

I will always remember the good times we shared

The jokes

The silly pictures

The long car rides

The talks about girls

The thought will always remain in my head

Why Daddy, why?
