Poetry: Death of a loved one

by Daniel Corley

Created on: April 15, 2008

Gone.

Father why'd you leave me here,
why did you just disappear?
We all truly love you so
and did you really have to go?

How I wish you were still here,
if only so you would be near.

As I lay down for the night,
I pray to God with all my might,
to once more see your sweet smile
if only for a little while.

How I wish you were still here,
if only to allay my fear.

How I need your guiding hand,
to help me through this unknown land.
Yet gone are you my shinning light,
leaving me in this darkest night.
