Tear Drops In My Eyes Poem by Audrey Heller

Whenever I think about you and I
constantly do, there's tear drops
in my eyes! I automatically expect
it, so it comes, as no surprise!
You're always on my mind, no
matter, what time of day. Even if
I'm engrossed in something else,
you're still there, I can't shake, that
image away! How many times, I
keep saying to myself, why, did you
have to leave? I had hoped you'd
have many more years, instead
your time was up and still, I grieve!
Not everybody takes the loss of
their father, as I did and still do!
Will there ever come a time, when
I'll get over you? Honestly, I don't
think that will ever happen, as you
meant and still, mean the world to
me. So there's no use in my trying,
for you're engraved in my heart,
through all eternity!
