Looking back today
I'll never forget the day
Then just a child
I really didn't understand
The day my dad left
Why was you took from us
You wasn't here long
Seemed if we just met
I remember we were friends
Not close but friends
 We didn't have enough time to mend
What happened on that day
Changed my life forever
Felt my world had stopped
Time stood still
I felt was longer than that day
All I seen later was hate
Fueled by rage
Still young 
Didn't see then
 What I know better now
Many wrong roads in life I took
For years didn't care
Felt of life as a game
Tallying up points
All the people I hurt
So someone else could feel the hurt 
The hurt I felt
I now accept my life
The hand I was dealt
Although I still don't understand
I no longer feel I was cheated my dad
 We will meet again
I'll see my dad again someday
Next time he'll be able to stay 

In loving memory Jim Welch
