I got some water in my eyes when you told me yesterday
That you would have to move oh so far away
You held me quite close, and told me not to cry
"Silly," I chuckled softly. "There's only water in my eye."
The day you told me to take care of all the family
Broke me up inside into glass shards entirely
I felt then in my heart that I was going to die
Still, I told myself so firmly "It's just water in my eye."
Morning came today, and I teared up in the light
A phone call came with dawn that you were fired without a fight
And although you thought I wept right then, let me assure you with my lie
Every morning I wake without you here brings water to my eye.

- Artist: ]Impetigo[
- Description: My dad recently lost his job. He's thinking of getting one overseas. I'm not sure how to deal with this turn of events, so I decided to write a poem about it. Sucky, I know, but whatever.
