Your presence still Lingers
It seems just like yesterday that I last saw your face,
But somehow that doesn't seem to change the fact that it's been
well over two years.
Every thought of you turns into tears,
Tears that are uncontrollable and tamable.
All my life you were my number one and still are forever in my heart,
I always wonder how it could be with you still here,
But then my tears come back because I remember it will never be that way
again.
Since the day you walked out I resented you,
Since that day I saw how fragile you've become I realized our time
would be limited.
You were the best and the worst for me,
But none the less you were the only one there for me.
Always on my side, always there to make sure I was OK,
Even when you put me down and made me cry,
I still loved you more then anything.
I even went as far as trying to make it work with someone so much like you,
Only to realize the one you knew about is the one that deserves more.
I've grown up so much, and you've missed out on so much,
It hurts to think you missed out on my 18th birthday, my high school
graduation, and my first day at college,
and the fact that you're not going to be there when I get married or
have my first child.
I'd honestly give anything to see you for one minute to tell you
I'm sorry,
and to tell you how much I truly love you and miss you.
But I think you know, since you're watching over me,
Watching me cry as I express these feelings to you right now.
Losing you showed me how precious life really is,
And that nothing lasts forever,
But you're my daddy, you were supposed to last forever...
I'm holding on like hell and it's hurting me more and more each
day,
But I don't ever want to forget you...
The good, the bad, and the rest.
You're my shining star, please protect me,
I can't take another fall...

Dear Daddy, I LoVe you for the rest of my life and ever more.

LoVe forever and more,
Your one and only daughter,
Victoria Anderson
