To Daddy
TO DADDY
FROM YOUR DAUGHTER
Daddy, I could feel no pain
It felt as if I was floating
I could only hear the beep of a machine
It told the beating of my heart
I could hear you weeping daddy
I wished I could I could comfort you
I didn’t want you to be sad
I knew you would miss my daddy
And daddy I knew I would miss you
I was really afraid daddy,
I could see the Wight light, grand mommy talked about before she died
Daddy that meant I could see grand mommy
I didn’t know what day or time it was daddy
But I feel the change
I felt lighter daddy
I partly heard the beeping slow
I also heard you calling the doctor
But I then I felt strong daddy
I called you,
I told you that I loved you daddy,
And daddy you hugged me
And whispered in my ear
‘Fly my little star fly, I love you I am so proud of you’,
And daddy you sang me that little prayer
“Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the lord my soul to take”
Daddy that was the last thing I heard on this earth
I didn’t feel frightened then daddy
And then there was white light everywhere daddy
It was beautiful,
But daddy it was your crying bought my soul back
To earth
I can’t see you in pain daddy
For years I have seen you go to my grave
At mid night to celebrate my birthday with a cake,
I have never loved you more daddy
When you kept my favorite sweets on my grave daddy
But daddy don’t cry,
I am happy
Please don’t cry,
I will always watch over you daddy
I will be your little guardian angel
And daddy I just wanted to say
That you are the best dad
And… I love you more than the world daddy.
