I Never Knew

I never knew,
that today would be the day that I lose my daughter,
that because of me and my decisions I would have her no longer,
that by me choosing to be the man I choose to be,
I would experience the day a father is never ment to see,
I can remember looking into her eyes saying I love you,
her not being old enough yet, but with her hugs she said daddy i love you too,

I can remember playing with her at the park,
we would go in the afternoon and stay until almost dark,
I would take her home and give her a bath,
she would give me a kiss and that said I love you dad,
then I would lay her down in her bed,
sing a song while i rub her head,
I would do this and watch her sleep, asking God to have her soul for keeps,

BUT now because of me choosing to be in the streets,
My enemies could not get to me but they wanted some beef,
they found my daughter and her mother,
outside of my house,
ask a question then shoot them before any words could come out,

I ran outside pistole in hand,
slipped on my daughters brains and shot up like a rubberband,
I knew she was gone when I made it to my feet,
With her mother still alive we got her off the street,
we went to the hospital to make sure she was ok,
she asked about our daughter Tania,
I look in her eyes and said God has called her this day,
I didn't know what to do, I couldn't see what GOD had in store,

All I wanted to know is why my baby had to die for,
she never had a chance to be,
the person I thought God had destined her to be,
she never had a chance to pick her favorite color,
she never understood the difference between winter and summer,
its so many things she was supposed to do,
I feel so bad because I never knew

Dear Sincer

Hey Sincer. I'm sorry about your loss; about the gunshot wounds..... About your wife and daughter.... Killing an innocent child, and murdering your innocent wife for no reason, was not the way to solve their anger. You don't retaliate by taking other people's lives. I'm not talking to you on that one Sincer, I'm just talking to the ones who put you through this misery and grief.....
Take care, be encouraged, and try to hang on....
I hope you find a way to cope through your pain Sincer.

Sincerely,

Meridian
