Don't Say

Don't say that he's at peace now

For it brings me no relief
 
Don't say it will get better
When I'm drowning in this grief
 
Don't tell me his suffering is over
As For me it's just begun
 
I know your words are kindness
But peace it gives me none
 
How dare the world just carry on
When you're no longer here
 
How could you go and leave us 
I can't breathe without you near
 
How can my heart stop breaking
Without you keeping me strong
 
All I want is to hug you dad
But the wait is just too long
 
I need to see you one last time
Please let me hear your voice
 
I need to know you'll be around
But I know you had no choice
 
I need to tell you just once more
Exactly how I feel
 
I'll never get the chance again
I wish this wasn't real.

Amazingly beautiful, I can

Amazingly beautiful, I can see the emotion flowing into this

Thank you, it's the first

Thank you, it's the first time I've put pen to paper.  My dad has recently passed away and I guess it's an outlet.

writing as an outlet

That could be a fairly good definition of a poet. Welcome to postpoems, THE outlet ~allets~
