Ode to Dad

"Saying goodbye is not easy"

You said you will return the next day

Yet you never did

As we lay our heads that night

little did we know, you were saying goodbye

I wonder....

Did you know?

What were your last thoughts?

Were you sad you was leaving us?

If you had a choice, would you have stayed?

Where are you now?

Do you have a new family?

Thank you, dad.

For loving unconditionally,

For your protection and support.

Life has changed since you left,

But I am glad I am a part of you.

Your blood runs in my veins.

Thank you,Dad!

You was the best!

I have held onto you long enough

It is time to say goodbye

To let you go, set you free.

Goodbye, Dad!
