Dear Daughter,

If you are reading this, I want you to know How you changed my life How you lighten up my world with your beautiful hazel eyes. Your footprints on the cement Your cute clever smile And the way you used to ask me to make your project files. I still remember, You used to gift me purple Orchids Because it was your favorite. You loved to see how a bird made her nest My girl, you were really the best. And then suddenly, everything changed. Never did I imagine, That my daughter had to face this. You stopped going to parties You stopped doing hangouts. Medicines, chemo and you started SCREAMING so loud. You loved me very much But you stopped showing it. You cared for me very much But you stopped showing it. And finally, one day, You left me. You went to some other beautiful world. You left me alone, heartbroken You left with all the moments We had together. I want you to see that, I STILL REMEMBER your painted face, Your deepest secrets Your favourite place, And all your regrets. DEAR DAUGTHER, I am always so sad. Because there is nobody to say "I LOVE YOU TOO DAD" . . This is written from a father's point of view. I am not sharing my experience here.

This is heart wrenching. Thanks for sharing such a personal experience. You might appreciate a poem I wrote called "A New Dream" if you type the title in the search box at the top of the page you should be able to find it.

Sure. But that's not my personal experience. I just wrote that poem from a father's point of view. I am just a 15 year old kid. I am sorry if you meant something else. And thank you for suggesting. Going to search it now
