Default 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 must part
Forever
So when I watched you today
I wondered if you new
How much I need you
How much I adore you
So when I watched you today
I just felt I had to let you know

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Comes a day when we truly realize our parents won't be around physically forever. We have to make the most of every single moment.
Thanks poem bandit, thanks, freebird.

that is so true Doc.
and for some reason it gets scarier every year as i see the signs of aging.

Christy can't imagine what you must be going through and just wanted to tell you again that i am praying for you and your family through this difficult time.
