DIED NOT KNOWING

 
He has died and left this earth not knowing 
I'm sure for certain that tears would be flowing 
His daughter disappeared over ten years ago 
What happened to her I'm afraid he won't know 

This story is not fiction I only wish it were
Nobody knows what has happened to her
For this man only old photographs would remain 
He suffered it all the anguish and the pain 

This loving man was so brave it has to be said 
Such a harrowing tale in the news to have read
Died not knowing is the worse way to die 
As I shake my head and wonder why oh why
