Love Poem: Dear Dad

Dear Dad

They Gave the Verdict Today.
They Gave Us 27 Million, but that Can Never Bring You Back.
I Will Never Hear Your Voice, See Your Smile, or Feel Your Warm Embrace.


You Will Never See Me Graduate High School, Attend Prom, Explore Lessons Learned in College, 

Or Even Walk Me Down The Aisle, and Give Me Away to Your Future Son-In Law.



Who Will Hold My Hand when a High-School Jerk has Broken My Heart?

I Miss You Soooooooo Much.


Words Can Never Express How Much Love I Have In My Heart For You.


Why Did You Have To Leave?


I Know that The Officer in Blue Pressed Your Face on the Ground, and Choked Your Life Away for Nine (9) Whole Minutes.

It Must have Been Like An Eternity.



His Trial is Underway.

I know that I am Too Young to Understand All that Will Happen In that Court Room.

But I Pray that Justice Prevails.


If History is a Reasonable Predictor or Indicator of a Future Outcome, Then I Will Not Hold My Breath.



Your Life IS and Will Forever BE PRICELESS.

I Would Give All the Money in the World Just to See Your Smile Once More.

To Have You Tell Me That You Love Me, and Will Never Let Me Go.



I Miss You Dad.


I know that You Are in Heaven Looking Down, and Hoping That I Become All That You and Mum Dreamt That I Would One Day Become.


Please Tell Yeshua or Jesus Christ, Hi for Me.


I Will See You Both One Day.


But Till Then, Keep Me In Your Thoughts and Prayers, For You Will BE Forever in Mine.


I Love You Dad,


Sincerely,

Your Little Angel,
