Tears have soaked my pillow since that dreaded night,
Longing to have you next to me and in my sight.
Sometimes the only thing I can do is breathe,
And cry and shout and mourn and grieve!
Your baby girl asks me questions that I sometimes don't have the answers to,
But for me I just have to keep pushing through!
Your big girl often points to that special star at night,
And for me it's the glow of the burning candle light.
The girls and I are missing you so much,
Your gentle ways and your soft caressing touch!
I have applied the make up over my tear soaked cheeks,
And I can't believe it's only been seven weeks!
I know that someday we will be together,
But for now we carry you in our hearts forever!
So for now dear daddy, loving husband and friend up above,
We send kisses and wishes and all of our love!
