I Wish I Had Longer. Poem by maria goodison
I Wish I Had Longer.
Being there watching you pass was the hardest thing I had to do, the pain
I feel because you didn't tell me the truth.
Listen to everyone say he did this way because he didn't want you to hurt, well dad
you were wrong and it hurts more then it would of ever did.
We made plans you and me, with Christmas and your birthday how much I'm feeling mad at you but I still love you.
My brother your son came to me and ask what he should do, he went out and got you a Christmas present, with out knowing his thoughts.
I wish so hard that I had just one more Christmas with you one more birthday one more cup of tea and a chat.
I wish I had longer to cook one last meal and take you shopping even hear you sing my favourite song that I will never hear again.
I miss you so much this is not that fair I lost my father my dad my supper hero at the end of October for real I wish I could put that month in a box and stamp on it.
I wish I had longer dad to tell you I miss you more then I could say.
A nice poetic imagination, Maria g. You may like to read my poem, Love and Lust. Thanks
A beatiful love to a father from a daughter with a loving caring heart, sad but beautiful

favorite line: I wish I could put that month in a box and stamp on it. i could get picky and point out some areas that i feel have minor errors (i will mention you typed supper hero i believe for super hero) . BUT the poem is so emotional, expressing your feelings so well, and otherwise well-written, that i shall say Thank you for sharing! this goes to MyPoemList. bri :)
