Because there will never be a greater pain.

There was nothing to do
but love you
from the time my tiny eyes
saw you

I reached out
wanting to become
the only light in your eyes

It was you I sought
when I’d scrape my knee
It was you I needed to see
before I fell asleep

But you-
you could not be bothered
with a tiny little me
a growing pained me
or an adult me

Yet even still-
with all that has been said
by me
I still need you
you see
because there was nothing I could do
but love you


My one and only Daddy...!!!
