Analysis of Letter to Dad in Heaven



Letter to My Dad in heaven.

Woke fighting tears back.
Hoping this is just a terrible nightmare.
Thinking on how I'll never get a phone call
Or hear your voice again.
Wondering why you left this world to early.
My heart is breaking.
You weren't a perfect dad but you was my dad. And I thank you for being my dad.
I know you're in heaven now
Looking down at us smiling and walking with Jesus, sending your love down to us.
Just know that we all love you very much
And we wish that you was still here with us, but we know that it can't be. Although we don't understand why you were taken from us, we do accept it. Until we see each other again dad. I love you from the bottom of my heart. Good bye  and rest in peace.
