Dad I found u in the dark,
I found you in the light,
Your soul was like an ark,
Your spirit shining bright.
I miss the way you laughed,
And carried your own pride.
Your death, cut me in half.
Always on my side.
You cared, you loved, you lost.
And taught me at a cost.
That life, mysterious may,
For God of you I pray.
May your soul lie gently true,
May heaven serve you.
