This poem is for all the people who have lost someone they loved. Keep the faith!

It never goes away. The feeling of missing you. The thought of… could I have done more. The shape of your face blends into the background of shaky memories. I can’t go back in time to hold your hand. But it gets easier. All I can do is pray for the strength to move forward. And for the ability to understand that your death is a part of God’s plan. You touched so many lives in such a short time. I am thankful for the years we spent together. For the long fishing trips, car rides and boy talks that were priceless. You were a Father most girls can only dream of. Because of you I was cared for. Because of you I was loved. And when all is said and done, just remembering you is enough.

Best, Esha <3
