You Will Never Know

Did you ever think of me
When you took your life?
All those hugs and kisses
That I'll never recieve.
And when your presence doesn't fill the room
Your smile and your laugh
All those family gatherings
Will akways feel so far

You left so early in my life
So many mistakes that you left behind
You could have fixed the problem
I would have loved you so
But Daddy I cannot hug you
When you are in a place unknown.

But you are in my heart
And forever you will stay
When you left me in the dark
I'd wanted to say how much you mean to me
The same words I'll never hear you say.

I love you till the day i die
I'll wipe away those tears that I cry
When you left me behind
you never got to know
how much i love you so.

How I wish my hand
was locked with yours
But Dady you are
Behind closed doors.
