Every Step I Take

It’s not much but it’s all that I have

The promise to always remember you

Because life is what you gave me

And right now I wish I could return the favor

Because I know you had so much left to

Resolve

I hope that you forgot all of it

The moment your last breath left your body

And felt nothing but bliss

Not regret

That’s what I’m living with in order to move

Forward

Because this lump in my throat is

Keeping the screaming child inside me

From screaming out loud

The one who remembers all the times

You spent with her

I wanna keep in mind that

When you go through something

So devastating that on the other side

Is something positive

So here I am

Laying in the dark

Just hoping you call my phone

So I can laugh with you one more time

And even though I have your number

I can’t bring myself to call you

Because that dial tone will make it to real

I’m somewhere in between denial and

Acceptance

Just know Dad that I will always remember

You

Every step I take

I’ll be missing you
