"DEAR DAD"

 

I'm touched by your presence

I know you are here

You are no longer visible

But I feel your energy

 

I hope you are proud

I hope you have peace

I hope you still love me

Because I still love you

 

I have a few memories

All of them good

I was five when you died

I still miss you

 

I used to be angry

I didn't understand

Why you had to leave

I thought it was my fault

For many long years

 

You left me

With my heartless Mother

Did you see it coming?

I often wonder

 

If you could tell someone what happened

What would you say?

I wish you could tell me everything

That happened that day

 

You were murdered

You never deserved it!

Was it as I think it was?

I bet it was

 

Justice will never be had for you

 

It's hard to heal and move on

But this is therapy for me

Thank you for the gifts I have received

I feel in my heart you gave them to me

 

So I guess I'll keep writing

 

Thank you so much

for the five years we had

I love you so much!

Rest in peace, Dad
