Do You See Me?

Do you see me when the sky is blue?
Do you see me when the sky is smoky gray?
Do you see me when I'm mad or sad?
Do you see me today?

You've been gone for oh so long,
but memories are strong.
I missed you then, I miss you now,
I'll miss you til I'm gone.

Do you now wear angels wings?
Perhaps that's not your style.
I can see you in my mind;
Fishing! (with a smile.)

I hope that Jesus shares the prayers
I say, as you and he walk.
Because sometimes when times get
tough, I really need to talk.

Today I'm sad, missing you Dad, but know
I'll be OK.
The sun is shining through the clouds.
Do you see me today?

I Thought of You Today


I thought of you today,
as I have so many times before.
It was strange, I haven't
done that for sometime.
I thought of you today,
I wondered how you are?
Truth be told, I try not to think
of you, but sometimes do.
I have wished many times over
that I could just erase you.
The way that you have erased
me, was it that simple? That easy?
I believed in you, thought you
believed in me. I was wrong,
suddenly, you were gone and
I was left alone.
I felt such pain, though it has
eased, it has never entirely
gone away.
I guess such is the price of love,
is it worth it - who's to say?
Though you are gone, want you
to know;
I thought of you today.
