The day god took you home 

You didn't go alone 

A part of my heart went with you 

I almost lost my life 

Finding out you lost your fight 

In life I loved you unconditionally 

In your death I love you still

I never said goodbye 

And that hurts so deeply inside 

You hold a place that no one can fill

It broke me to lose you 

Now I live my life in your dedication 

With the angels by your side 

It makes me just want to cry 

Knowing I cant hold your hand 

I struggle with my selfish thoughts 

Tho I wanted you to stay 

So we could talk 

And you could walk me down the aisle one day

Knowing you touched my soul and heart 

I know I will never truly lose you.

I had never met my dad until the summer of 2020 when I was 16 after that he had became a big thing in my life. It was a mile stone for him and I to meet for the first time... A few months after we got close, my mom and I have got the news that he has lung cancer. And in january of 2021 he had passes and it hit me like a rock to the gut.
