I turned nine today
a whole year older than yesterday
I wished you were here again
like I do every year since you went
I saw Daddy cry last night
He said he missed you
But when I asked him the same thing about where you were again
He said that I would see you
He told me you were on a vacation
A really long one at that
But I hope you return soon
Six years, aren't you happy after that?
Our summer break is SO small
I wished mine was as long as yours
I told Daddy that once
He scolded me and told me to never wish that and that I must
Be a good boy for you
And that I would meet you but after I'll be really older
He tells me to be strong
But last I heard, nine year olds doing lifting was wrong
I'm tired of my friends asking me aboutyou
I tell you're on vacation, they say it isn't true
They tell me you're never going to come back but I don't believe them
"It's not really nice," I tell them ,to question what I believe in
But come back soon Mommy
I need you
But when I come to visit you
will you be there before I miss you?
