This poem is dedicated to my dad... ROBERT ALVIN HOOK!!! He passed away when I was 12 years old, I still haven’t the slightest idea of how to deal with this... I didn’t really know him, the things I did know about him weren’t all the good, but he was my dad... so all you young kids who take your parents for granted, DON’T ! there’s no pain in the world that compares to the pain of when you loose a parent... be nice let them know that you love them, because you never know when they will be gone... so without a goodbye or kiss from my dad he was gone like that, and the last words I said to him was and I quote "I HATE YOU DAD" and then I find out that he’s gone... please always remember

What Do You Do?

What do you do when you just want to cry?
What do you do when every smile becomes a LIE?
What do you do knowing he won’t be there?
You’re turning 16 and your heart turns cold and bare!
When you can’t be happy you can’t laugh anymore!
You can’t pretend he'll walk through that door!
With flowers and balloons and a cute teddy bear,
and a little pink bow to go in your hair,
a smile on his face and a tear in his eye!
Before his big hug out comes a sigh!
“My little girl is growing up so fast!”
That’s what I wish I’d hear him say,
Another gaze into my eyes,
Darling "I LOVE YOU happy 16th birthday!!!!
What do I do when my hands start to shake?
when my heart starts to yearn for that smile on his face?
16 years of life and almost 3 with pain in my heart,
A million left to go and I don’t know where to start!!!!
So I’m lying here tonight my heart crushed and sad,
It’s SWEET 16 this year without my amazing dad!!!

I also lost, not my real dad, my step dad, the one I only called daddy, the one I call my father. He past away when I was twelve years old I hate that he won't be here to see me get married or see his grandchildren. Everyday I think about him. He was the one who took me and my brother in when our real dad wanted nothing of us as much as we use to wish he would. The last words I got to say to him were : I HATE YOU screaming that in rage because he got my mother mad at him so I got mad at him for that. I regret it so much. The pain of his death is pain that will never heal in my heart. He raised me, he taught me so much and I'll never forget all the things we use to do. I was his little girl he always wanted and he had daughters but I don't know why he treated me better but I'm glad he did because I loved him ever so much and I cherish his memory everyday.
