Three years ago today, my daddy went away, he is not lost I know where he has gone.

He went to Heaven to see his brand new home. For three long months he lay there, not breathing on his own.

I wanted so bad to have him speak my name just one more time and reach out for my hand, we all prayed so hard, we new things would never be the same, but Jesus came and took him home.

Every time I hear now someone speak his name, or see someone that kind of looks like him, my eyes fill with tears, it seems just like yesterday he left us, when it has already been three years.

Will the hurt ever go away, or should we want it to stay, for it helps us to look forward to when we see him again someday.

Daddy I miss you, I look forward just to hear, you say my name when I see you in Heaven and you show me the sights up there.
