My Dad and Me

I may not be your flesh and blood

I've obviously not known you the longest

There's things about you I've never known

Our quantity of time isn't strongest

I don't want to "compete" for your love

I never really did

Your love was always endless

It never had a lid

I just want to miss you

I just want to share

The one for whom my heart sang

Whom I always knew would care

So maybe I'm not your "daughter"

Perhaps I'm "only" a "step"

But to us that never mattered

Each memory I have kept

Stored in my heart

Locked with a key

Treasured forever

My Dad and me
