A girl needs her dad to show her a man who is good, to help her make right choices, as only a father could.
A woman needs her father just to be aware he'll always be there for her, to sustain her and care.
you were all these things dad.
I hope you saw how much i treasured you; you meant everything to me.
if tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane, i would walk right up to heaven, to bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken, no time to say good-bye. you were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why.
Had i known, i would have called you then.
Had i known, i would have asked less questions and listened more. Had i known i known one day you'd be gone, and i couldn't show you anymore, I'd have lived each moment as if it were the last. I'd have remembered every word..never let time go by so fast.

Why couldn't i realise that you would leave me, and I'd be caught in the past. in the moments i could have changed, the times that were your last. i would have lived a lifetime in a few short days.
Instead, i have a few brief moments, my heart still aches in sadness and secret tears still flow. what it meant to lose you, no one will ever know.
Rest in Peace OBM, heaven knows I miss you.
You'd have turned 59 yesterday...in as much as i realise this day should be a happy one, for you were so we could be, i find myself hurting...so many times i've hoped it was all just a bad dream..looks like am still waiting to wake up. Till we meet again.
Happy Birthday Dad.
