Solemnly <\/span><\/p>\n

She steps onto the stage <\/span><\/p>\n

Her eyes swollen shut <\/span><\/p>\n

From crying tears of pain <\/span><\/p>\n

This day <\/span><\/p>\n

A day she wont soon forget <\/span><\/p>\n

Her day of birth <\/span><\/p>\n

A cause to celebrate <\/span><\/p>\n

Quickly turned into <\/span><\/p>\n

A day of somberness<\/span><\/p>\n

She holds the memories close\u00a0 <\/span>instead <\/span><\/p>\n

Life goes on<\/span><\/p>\n

And we learn to cope <\/span><\/p>\n

With the tragedies <\/span><\/p>\n

That litter our happy place <\/span><\/p>\n

She take the mic <\/span><\/p>\n

Her broken voice <\/span><\/p>\n

Indicative of her broken heart <\/span><\/p>\n

She starts to sing <\/span><\/p>\n

But the words get in the way <\/span><\/p>\n

Fighting through the tears <\/span><\/p>\n

That drench her face <\/span><\/p>\n

She dedicated to him <\/span><\/p>\n

A lovely piece that portrays <\/span><\/p>\n

A tribute to his absence <\/span><\/p>\n

For even though he missed a lot <\/span><\/p>\n

His existence still lingers <\/span><\/p>\n

The sound of his voice <\/span><\/p>\n

The roughness in his hands <\/span><\/p>\n

The goodness of his heart <\/span><\/p>\n

Her father forever a piece of her heart. <\/span><\/p>\n
