You're too young to understand
Just how much I miss you
The nights I can't sleep
If you only knew
How hard it is on me
Being away
Been away so long now
You don't even know my name
It's Weldon
I'm your father
(By the way)
I remember when
Kristen told me she was expecting
She asked me what I hoped for
I wanted a little girl
Originally your name
Was gonna be Laney
We added the De on
At the last minute
That's why you might
Hear me call you
Laney bug
Every now and again
I'm sure as you get older
You'll want to be called
Delaney or Caroline
Something proper like
When you mom was carrying you
I used to write a journal
For you
I guess that's what these
So called 'poems' are these days
Letters I can't send to you
Letters that are heavy on my heart
Words that won't quit
Sounding off in my head
I'm sorry baby
I never meant for it
To be this way
If you only knew
What I wanted it to be like
Well here goes nothing eh?
From day one
I wanted and still want to be
Your protector and provider
Your teacher and comforter
The person you feel
Most safe with
Also the guy
Who can answer any question you might ask
The man to tuck you in at night
Read you bedtime stories
(Maybe we could write a few of our own)
Where the princess (You)
Lives in a magical world
Where dreams
Like yours and mine come true
If you only knew
That I'm not upset
With anyone anymore
That's just what the people
Who don't want us together say
To keep us apart
They could never
Take you away completely
You are my blood
I love you
Without question
Without limits or boundaries
Some folks don't believe that
I'm not worried about those folks
All that matters is one day
You'll see
My love is kind, fair, accepting, and true
Until that day comes...
I'll just sit up
Late at night and think
If you only knew
Just how much you are
-And-
Always will be loved :)
You're my heart bug :)
