I’m sitting here thinking back on old memories. How happy and careless we use to be. But now it’s as if I’m sinking. Oh dad, why’d you have to leave? Everyday is such a struggle. Everyday alone is worse. Back than if I ever needed you, all I had to do was pick up the phone. It’s the way you made it seem so easy, even though I knew it was hard. It’s the way you loved me unconditionally, even if you were really far. There was never any judgement in your eyes, just happiness. Even if you were in pain inside. Everynight you would tell me to look up at the sky, into the moon and no matter the distance that is where we’d lie. Since I was five you would tell me my eyes shined like the stars. Those words you spoke are scarred in my memory. Pictures are all I have left. I wish I couldve been with you, that I regret. Now my heart is where you’re at. Through all these words all I want to say is; I love you, I miss you, and I forgive you. You live in all of us because your fingerprints don’t fade from the lives you’ve touched.
