Seeing the happiness in them
Remembering not seeing my father
Tears of regret going down my cheeks
Seeing loved ones hugging
Wanting to hug my dad
Wishing he would be here
Praying to God that it would happen
Walking up and down the terminal
Looking to see him standing there
Running towards his open arms
Choking back the tears....
Sadly this will never happen
This will remain just a dream
Remain just a hopeful prayer
Maybe I should have prayed with faith
A silent sigh, shaking my head
Shaking the thoughts from my mind
Boarding the plane now....
All hope has now been lost
Author notes
I was sitting in the terminal waiting for my flight to arive. For those of you who don't know, my dad was suppose to get in at 2:30 and my flight was leaving at 2:05. For those who don't know the whole story and want to know, just ask me. Anyways, I was just seeing like the family members hugging and it inspired this poem. Anyways, just to let everyone know, it ends up that my dad ended up canceling his trip to Colorado Springs, so even if I had stayed home he wouldn't have come... heh, I wrote this poem before then, though so I figured I'd still post it.
