[hometext] => I wrote this poem to help me let go of my dad. He died when I was 2 so I didn't really get to know him.
[bodytext] => Why did he have to go? I guess it was his time. I really don't know. I guess he was just next in line. I wish I had gotten to know him He sounded like a great guy After he left, my life did sort of dim About that I can't lie. I was only two when he passed. So I really don't remember But my love for him will always last Like a long winter night in December. When I awake each morning The rays of his smile shine down on me. It's sort of like a warning Saying my day is gonna be like a fantasy. I never really learned how to let go of my dad Until the other day. Because letting go is so very sad But I'm torturing him by making him stay. I said "Daddy, this is hard for me I have to let you know. Please Daddy, forgive me, But I have to let you go."
