Smile
As time moves forward
I’ve moved further than I thought I could
My smile has returned
I was so broken when I started this journey
I can’t believe how far I’ve come
How much taller I now stand
I know my grief will never go away
But i’ve found my place again
As time moves fore
I’ve grown more than I thought I could
You have been my inspiration for so much
I have mapped my emotions and laid them bare
I have celebrated your life
And tried to share with the world, just how special you really were
I wouldn’t have thought it possible to be standing where I am right now
As time moves forward
I’ve healed more than I ever thought I could
You aren’t just my Dad
You are so much more
I have a heart full of questions
Which I know will never have answers
But the sun will rise... and I will continue to smile
