Death is not the end, it is only a bridge to another place.
My Dad
I know this man
Who is dear to my heart
Suddenly one day
It was torn all apart
This man taught me every thing
That I needed to know
But I never really listened
Until he had to go
He gave me love
And touched my life
Its all over now
He no longer has to fight
He tried to teach me
Right for wrong
The day he left
I wasn't that strong
He is gone now
It is hard to believe
This man is my dad
Who I will never see
But I will see him again
This I know
The day will come
When its time for me to go
So, I'll hold him dear
And close to my heart
Cause the day we meet
I know we'll never be torn apart.

Salam Lolitta,
ReplyDeleteBeautifully heartfelt. I'm sorry to learn the passing of your father. I just lost my mother as well in September so these words touch dearly.
Welcome to the blog world.

ReplyDeleteI lost my mother as well and still cant get over it. Dad I lost a month today. The say time heals,believe me it doesnt.Just that we tend to move on feeling such a numbness that only those who have lost a loved one will understand.... keeping busy but when I think of my parents its as if Ive been stabbed in my heart and the pain comes back...
I once asked my friend who had lost both parents when would I stop crying for the pain I felt .... to which she replied that you'll never be rid of it ...whenever you think of them its as if youre watching an old movieyou were part of and now you are no longer..
Thanks Ibeebarbie. and im sorry for the loss of your mum.
Blessings.
