Daddy, Why?
(A/N I don't own the characters or zoids themselves, and I don't own " I Love You This Much" by Jimmy Wayne.)
He can't remember
The times that he thought
Does my daddy love me?
Probably not
That didn't stop him from wishing that he did
Didn't keep him from wanting
Or worshipping him
Man, why is it that everytime I turn on the radio this song is playing. Thought Bit, as he was listening to the radio. This song keeps reminding me of what a rotten dad I had.
He guesses he saw him
About once a year
He could still feel the way he felt
Standing in tears
Stretching his arms out
As far as they go
Whispering daddy
I want you to know
(Flashback)
" You just got back daddy, where are you going now?" questioned a little boy of about 7 years old.
His dad looked down at him, and then turned away and continued to walk towards his car. He hopped into the seat, and without taking one more glance back, he drove away. Out of the little boy's life once more.
" Where's he going mom?" said a little boy with tears pouring out of his eyes.
" Away son," was the only reply the mother gave the young, weeping child.
(End of Flashback)
I love you this much
And I'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much
Tears were starting to form in Bit's eyes. Dad was never there for me, and yet I still kept my hope that someday he would come back for me and mom. Why didn't he ever come back?
" You hear me dad," said Bit, looking up to the sky. " Why didn't you ever come BACK?"
" Bit, are you ok?" Leena said as she knocked on the door startling Bit.
" Yeah, I'm fine. I'll be out in a few minutes, I'm just finishing getting ready." said Bit back as he threw on his best suit.
" Ok, see you in a few minutes." said Leena, walking down the hall.
He grew to hate him for what he had done
'cause what kind of father
Could do that to his son?
He said 'damn you daddy'
The day that he died
The man didn't blink
But the little boy cried
" OK, I'm ready to go everybody," said Bit as he came out of his room.
" Alright then, let's go," said Doc as he grabbed the keys to the car.
" Thanks for coming to the funeral with me everybody." said Bit at the verge of tears again.
" No problem buddy," said Brad.
I love you this much
And I'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much
Stepping out of the car, the team walked into the funeral home. Bit walked over to the coffin, and looked down and stared at the man lying in the casket. He didn't know what to say, and then it hit him. " Dad, you may not have been there for me and mom, but I still love you. And I know you loved me too. You just didn't know how to say it. I just want you to know that I forgive you for not being there, and I want you to know, that I always loved you." said Bit. Then his knees gave in and he fell, sobbing into the old man's tux. Leon and Brad walked over to help Bit to his seat.
Half way through the service
While the choir sang a hymm
He looked up above the preacher
And he sat and stared at him
He said
'forgive me Father'
When he realized
That he hadn't been unloved
Or alone all his life
His arms were stretched out
As far as they go
Nailed to the cross
For the whole world to know
The service ended, and Bit walked out side. There he stretched out his arms and looked up to the heavens. He sat there and sang to the Lord. And he yelled at the top of his lungs, " I love you this much!"
I love you this much
And I'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much.
