Papa
If I had one last day with you
What would I say?
My grades are high,
You’d be impressed.
My soccer skills
Improved.
I know you’d want
Me to do my best
And I will try
For you.
I wish I had a real goodbye
One with a great bear hug
But a birthday phone call
Will have to do
We can’t pick and choose
A death.
