The pain I am feeling now
The hurt of you being gone
I hope I wull overcome my obstacles, but without you I don't know how
I want to hear your voice again rejoicing like a song.

You were always there for me
Through thick and thin, loose or win
When I was down you picked me up again
With you, right now, is where I want to be.

We've had so many good times together
Traveling here and there
You'll always be with me forvere
Though the lose of you I cannot bear.

I wish that you'd be able to see me on my Wedding Day
The hurt I'm feeling now is very hard to say
Right now it's gloomy, dark, and gray
But if you where here it would be a sunny day.

Dad, I cannot stand alone
I need your hand to hold
I want to see your smile
I dont want to see the cold.

I have so many memories of you
Pictures, trips, Elroy stories and more
Right now I'm feeling blue
I'm broken and my heart is torn.

I'm sorry for all the calls I hadn't returned
I'm sorry for all the fights
This will be the hardest day I have ever learned.

I'm sorry for saying I was to busy
I wish I saw you instead
I'm sorry for not seeing you on all the holidays
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for being so greedy
I'm sorry for yelling at you
I'm sorry for not coming to see you
But now it's too late and already through.

I wish you could have lived with me
Until this dying day
Every night before I go to sleep
For you, I will surly pray.

I wish that I could touch you
I wish you were alive
I wish I could have told you again
I love you and good-bye.

I love you Dad
Always and forever
Please look down on me
So we will never tether.

When my day comes,
Hopefully not for a while
We will all be together
In the magic land.

GAngel -- Heart warming and heart felt.
Take heart -- this kind of pain does
fade with time.  Your father forgives you,
and loved you just for you.

No one is perfect and we don't always
say - or do what we should have done
and we all remorse what was too late;
its a painful lesson in life and we learn
from these sad rememberances.

Think of the wonderful times you had
together instead --- and someday along the road you two will meet again.
