If you were here — Poe

If you were here I know that you would Truly be amazed At what's become of what you made If you were here You would know how I treasured every day How every single word you spoke Echo's in me like a memory of hope

When you were here You could not feel the value that I placed One every look that crossed your face When you were here I did not know just how I had embraced All that you hid behind your face Could not hide from me 'Cause it hid in me too

Father: Hello tiger, it's fun, talking with you. like this--in fact I'm going to do it more often

Now that I'm here I hear you and wonder if maybe you can hear yourself Ringing in me now that your somewhere else.

Father: I miss you a lot

'Cause I hear your strange music gentle and true

Father: But I'm so proud of everything you do there

Singing inside me with the best parts of you

Father: Next time I see you you'll proudly sing it back to me

Now that I'm here

I love you...

Daughter: It's okay you can go now
