When I Watched You

(here's another one written for my father)

I watched you today
You did not know that i was watching
And love filled my heart
Yet also sadness
For the year's are telling on you
And i wondered how much i alone aged you
I saaw the pain asy you limped forward
If it had been different
What would you be? What would i be?
When i was a little girl
We walked together and played
But then i began to grow
Up and away
And i was frightened and confused
I couldn't tell you I was scared
I didn't know
So I showed it in my anger and shouting
And i confused you
And i broke your heart
You've loved me forever
And i know that forever you will
But i'm still scared
And i want to tell you
But I don't want to hurt or worry you anymore
For i know I have worried you
And though things have changed
And i'm supposed to be grown up
I still feel like that little girl sometimes
Who used to sit on your lap
And hold your hand
The one you kept safe
Exdcept now i know more of the world
And the pain that comes with loving
I could never stop loving you
So when i watched you today
Tears stung my heart
Though i kept them from you
Because i know that in loving you
And in your loving me
I've hurt you and aged you
If only i could turn back time
And go back to being daddy's little girl
Knowing no fear or pain
But since I can't
I now try to shelter you
From the hurt that knowing would cause
But in doing so
Do I interfere in us knowing each other?
So when I watched you today
All these things came to me
And I became afraid
For watching I knew
That we don't have forever
Because we can't stop time
And I know that someday we may part
