Aimee

A daughter silent grieving 
struggles through her day,
A father so heart broken he 
can't begin to say,
Shall all there days be filled 
with pain,
And yet they never see,
That all the sorrow only speeds 
what shouldn't have to be,
I miss her so with all my heart, 
my prayers are all for you,
Please tell me that you love 
me,
And I shall tell you too,
My one true wish shall always 
be,that you shall one day see,
My love for you endearing, and 
hope it sets us free,
To have the times that we once 
had would fill my heart with 
pride,
To feel your love so warmly, as 
you walk by my side.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Nicely done James! Love and loss can cause immense heartache when they go hand in hand. It's never easy for those who remain but strength must be found.
