Dear Dad,
my heart still aches with pain
The day you left, my world shattered in vain
I couldn't breathe, my chest felt tight
The tears wouldn't stop, it was an endless fight
You were my strength, my rock, my guide
But now you're gone, and I feel lost inside
I try to move forward, but I'm stuck in the past
Unable to pick up the pieces, it's all moving too fast
I miss your laughter, your voice, your touch
I miss having my best friend, whom I loved so much
You worked hard, through all the pain
For our family, you endured, and never did complain
You taught me to be strong, to never give up
But now without you, I feel like I've had enough
I'm lost Dad, and I don't know where to go
You were my compass, my light, my guiding soul
I'll never forget the memories we shared
The love and laughter, the moments that we paired
You were more than a father, you were my everything
And now, without you, my heart forever will be grieving
But I promise to keep your legacy alive
To honor your name, and continue to strive
For you, were the best of men
And in my heart, you'll always remain
So here's my elegy, a tribute to you
My Dad, my heart, my hero true
I'll never forget your love, your sacrifice
And I'll cherish every moment, for the rest of my life.
