Birthday parties missed
Thanksgiving, Christmas
New Years
Waiting up all night
'Til one day I stopped waiting
Forgot who I was waiting for
And why

The lesson learned that such
Was not important
Not to you
Nor I
No reason to be hurt, or angry
And I wasn't
I am still not
Just feel distant, and alone
Even when
I am not

So whenever you call me long distance
I'm quite happy and surprised
Leaves me wondering why
Why we didn't talk more often
Like this
When I was there waiting
For you

Words are empty without memories
The breath of living emotions
Which give unspoken meaning
Transcending words
Between a Father and Son
Though our blood binds us
We share no such memories
That I can recall

I sense fear in your voice
Now that you are old
And alone
I've grown too strong to be sad
We trade good-byes
Hang up the phone

I sit in the cold dark hallway
And try hard
So hard
To forget
