I logged into Facebook. I'd quite forgotten that it was Father's Day. I saw the posts that all my friends had put. Some had even posted pics of them with their dads. I had tears in my eyes. I didn't what to do. Dad isn't with my anymore. It's been a long time since he left me. Looking at those posts, I imagined what would dad's reaction be if I'd wish him. I never had a chance to wish him as I was too young to realize when Father's day was and by the time I knew he wasn't with me! I also imagined what he'd look like. Hmmm how I wish he could come back!
All I'm left with are memories and even they are so few. I never got to fully experience my growing years with him. When everything seemed alright, God just decided that he wanted dad more we did and then took him away. Oh! How I miss him.
Whatever I am today I owe it to him and mum. He was the one who taught me many things in the short span of time he was with me. When I was naughty he would scold me and then the next moment would carry me around and do things that would cheer me up. Why did he have to go away? I still cannot understand!
All I want to say is that I love you, Dad. No matter where you are, I know you are listening and I want you to know that I'm proud of you. Thanks for everything that you've given me. Everything that you've taught me. I know I'm late. But, "Happy Father's day". I miss you!
Lots of hugs and kisses,
Your dear daughter.
P.S.: Please come back if possible!
