The Only Father I Knew

The Only Father I Knew

The only Father I Knew | TheMrsTee.com

 

We never had the memories of how I grew up

 

We never spent lazy weekends playing games or watching cartoons

 

We never had fun days at the movies or playing games

 

We never spent hours just talking about how life was

 

We never made it to the Father – Daughter dances

 

We never had all of our second chances

 

No, We never did

 

 

You stood up for me against the words others spoke

 

I still hear the pride when you said ‘She’s mine’

 

You loved me the best you could when you could

 

I still feel the hugs you gave – they never went away

 

You gave me all you knew how even when you couldn’t be there

 

I still wish it was more – but I know it wasn’t all your fault

 

Yes, I know that

On this Father’s Day and on all the rest

 

I write out these feelings straight from my heart

 

Though your life was short your love was true

 

I may never know the full story

 

But the one thing I know is

 

You were the only father I knew
