I wrote this poem for a friend who belongs with me to one of the worst groups on the planet...parents who have buried their children. He stared a lot at the canvas that I made of my son and a poem. So I got him one and I wrote the poem. Tragically, his son committed suicide. Call a friend, or neighbor, and a suicide crisis hotline is available, just call 988
Dad, when I entered this world, and your eyes were laid upon me, you vowed to never let me go and decorate the world I see. I felt the comfort of your arms, the gentleness of your touch, I never had any doubts that you loved me so very much.
I was brought up to be a good man, one exactly like my wonderful dad, so dry your tears of sorrow and pray away the sad.
Dad, I now lay my eyes on you, although you can’t see my face, God said you did a great job on me, but just know I’m in a happier place.
The road I have taken to heaven was all part of god’s master plan, so I came to the end of the road, and I need you to understand.
A step to our final home in heaven is a journey we all will eventually see, so still miss me a little, love me a lot, but Daddy it is time to set me free.
I will never forget you, nor the memories we both treasured, cause You will always be my daddy and I will always be your forever.
