I Miss You Daddy Poem by Rachel Black elk

I miss you daddy

How can life end so quick
It's a dream i say today
How did you die so soon
Is it real I ask.......no way

I miss you daddy
There's no words to say
I can't deal with you gone
It eats me everyday

I can't find a place
and it's hard to sleep
My feelings hurt so much
They're just way down and deep

Family how are you
Felling after the death
Missing Daddy after 8 years
Remembering the way things were

Oh Daddy I miss you so
I can't move on
Even though time is flying
I'm at a stand still since you're gone

I know you're in heaven
and you're loved there just the same
There is no turning back
Death is not a game

You suddenly became ill
and it took you by surprise
The doctors knew how to prove it
and this was no lie

Like a trooper you were
Wanting to live so much
You did all they told you to
and I was your crutch

I'm sorry daddy
I miss you every day
I'll never let you go
You're in my heart all the way

Until we meet again
You're always in my heart
I miss you daddy very much
We will never be apart.

I love you daddy....
In loving memory of my father Aubrey Wayne Stargell who passed away on January 25 2011
