"I Wish" {Poem}

[anime_freak_kouga]

I wrote this the evening of August 4th, 2008. I personally like this poem out of everything that I've written about. (I haven't written too many, but I still like this one the best.)

"I Wish"

I wish I could see you,
I wish you were here,
Then I wouldn't have to shed a tear.

I wish I could have known you,
I wish you didn't have to go,
I miss you like hell, that I do know.

I wish I could say Happy Birthday to you,
I wish I could say Happy Father's Day,
But instead I close my eyes and pray.

I wish I could tell everyone how awesome my Dad is,
I wish I could have been Daddy's Little Girl,
Every time I think of what could have been my mind goes a twirl.

I wish you where here to tuck me in at night,
I wish you were here to tell me a bed time story,
Just to see you here in all your glory.

I wish I could show you how much I love you,
I wish you could show me just how much you love me,
Then I would be filled with tremendous glee.

I wish, I wish,
I wish I didn't have to say that all the time,
What happened to you really is a crime.

What I ask myself the most though,
Is... why?
Why did you have to die?
