"Heaping Tragedy"

Mountain of knowledge heaped,
Once I found,
That note of yours left,
On the cold ground.

Your story a tragedy:
Father died at year five.
A drunken car crash.
You wish he was alive.

Life will never be the same,
With your best friend gone.
A dad lost, never found;
Didn’t know him long.

Rewind and tell him to stay home,
“Daddy, don’t go!”
Love has to overcome time!
The universe said no.

Mountain of knowledge heaped,
Once I found,
Your poor, broken heart,
Crumpled on the ground.
