A letter to Dad

Dear father, you left us too soon, Still feel your absence beneath the moon.

There’s days I wish you were still here, Cuz this cancer, man, it’s bringin’ fear.

It’s takin’ its toll, breakin’ us down, A silent enemy, that wears no crown.

We fight, we cry, we hope and pray, But the pain don’t seem to fade away.

I need you now, more than before, To guide me through, and open the door.

You were the strength, the voice, the sound, Now I’m searchin’ for you, all around.

Time don’t heal, it just twists and bends, Feels like I lost my best friend.

But I’m still here, fightin’ the fight, Carryin’ your love, holdin’ it tight.

We’ll keep pushin’ till the end of days, In your memory, we’ll find our ways.

Rest easy, pops, but don’t forget, Your spirit's still here, no need to regret.
