One day not long after fathers day i had come 2 visit u,
and as u lay sleeping i wanted 2 say hi and give u a hug
but he said u were sleeping and to let u sleep.
Leaving u that day i didn't know that it would b the last time
that i would c u alive.
After arriving back home she said "he's gone" and not long
after there was a phone call that proved her right.
It all happened so fast that i didn't know wat was happening,
and a few days later we said goodbye.
the funeral went fast then they played a song as the curtain closed.
Its now been almost 12 years since u left this world,
and each day i miss u a little more
i wish u were still here and feel sad when i c happy
fathers and daughters around everywhere
i wish u could b here 4 when i walk down the isle
im sure u will b in spirit.
I love u dad u were always my hero,
My knight in shining armor, the one that
always looked after me.
Now all i have left r memories and a few
photos.
I hope ur having a great time up there
above the clouds, with Uncle Shane,
and not getting up 2 much mischief
i will c u again when its my turn 2 leave.
No one will ever take ur place ur my one
and only dad.

Beautifully written, capturing his loss to you.
Every day is a gift, sometimes we get so many we forget their value. Same with our relatives and friends.
