Daddy's on Vacation


Every year of my life, every month of the year, and every day that goes by I keep forgetting that you’re no longer here. I wished this pain would all go away but each countless moment I thought you I just made the suffering continue longer. From this day forward I promise to you and especially to myself to see you as not being gone forever, but as if you have taken a vacation from life and that I will see you in the near future. Now the day has come to begin I finally get to be with you all over again. I hope things will be better in the new ways of life and everything in the past will become memories of the future
