I miss you.

It feels like nothings fair anymore.
But nobody told me how hard life could be.
I wasn't warned, I don't think anyone was.

God put my step-daddy's soul in my life.
& then, he took him away,
just like that.

God teased me, he made him well.
He put him in car accidents
He made his heart stop working.
but then he made it beat again

My step-daddy was incredibley smart
When i needed help.
He told me, "I'm smart, to think again, & if I don't get it. Ask again"

The one thing you had was your brain.
He put a giant tumor on it,

as if that wasn't enough
your feet were swallon, your body was tiny.

You couldn't move.
& the last i saw of you, you were crying.
I couldn't stop you.
God made you stop crying.

Forever.

I'm sorry for the loss of your stepfather. I can feel the pain and disappointment. He made you into a smart young person and would be proud of the words you write to tell the world we lost a good man. A powerful poem.

hey, look

i know what it's like to lose someone you really love

i lost my mom, and idk if you're blaming it on God, or if you're simply stating that God was the one that took him, but just remember

God does everything for a reason.

Jesus Loves You. ^-^

Such a heart-felt poem.
Your step-dad sounds like one of the best and strong.
It does seem so unfair , life .. i miss someone so special to me also.

I think this is a beautiful tribute to your step-dad ..i know he is gone but i am so glad you had him ..and it is apparent you love him.
Beautiful..
