1985
When Daddy died.

I know that it is said
that nothing is ever lost in spirit.
And I know I am a spiritual being
and will not cease to be, 
because, I leave the body 
does not mean I am no more.

there is much I love about life,
every tear that falls upon my cheek
every tear that falls from my eyes
filled with tears, this feeling of losses,
this cry of loneliness and emptiness
bring tears to my eyes.

Each tear saying I miss you
I miss you a lot
I don't know how to bring about
the supreme letting go called death.

words unsaid but kept in my heart..
words that I wish that I could ...
have said unto you, I now must
hold until we meet again.
Will I need to say them then?

Will you remember the love we held in our hearts 
or will you have forgotten me, or our love?
Each tear that fall from my eyes are for you,
are for me.
Are for the human in me that don't know
how to exist without you...

This supreme letting go
I have not accepted, will I ever?
Every tear that falls upon my cheek.
Every tear that falls from my eyes
filled with tears
this feeling of losses,
this cry of loneliness and emptiness
bring tears to my eye.

Each tear saying I miss you.
I miss you a lot.
I don't know how to bring about
the supreme letting go called death.

And so I move on among the living dead
I exist because you are no more.
No! we are no more.
