Cancer Don't Take Daddy
I'm losing youI have no way to keep you
I can't let cancer take
you away from me
I will miss you ever so much
Why you dad,why did cancer
have to find you
When we found out the news
We thought it was little
We were so wrong
We tried to deny
That you were
not going to
die
You made it through those
terrible tests and treatments
How you kept strong
Not shedding a tear
Trying to keep us
from breaking
When we were
the one's pretending
You were going to
be ok
We would pray the treatments
would take most of it
Then one day
He became very ill
We took him to the hospital
Thinking he was just not eating right
I guess we all never faced
Cancer never dies
When I saw my father that day
I walked out of the room
I saw my mom and my uncle
talking to the nurse
I new it was bad
I saw tears rolling down their cheeks
I asked but new what my mom was going to say
It was bad she said
I grabbed my mom and held her tight
My mom said it will be a hard battle
we are about to face
Now I have to face the fact
My dad now only has a month to live
I will never forget the first dance I had
I will never forget the first time I played ball
I will remember he never missed a game
I will remember he was always their for me
My dad always supported me
I told him all my dreams
My dad always tried to
make my dreams
come true
But their is one dream he does not know
I dreamed he never left my side
I cant have him leave me
How am I supposed to go on
My daddy is dying and I have
no way to save him
To make him stay
I will miss his dimples
How we all would call him Dimpster
My mother I worry about
She is losing her one and only
She is losing the one man
Her true love
The love of her life
My father,is about to die
My moms soulmate is
leaving her behind
He fights with all he has
Never does he show us pain
When we know he is crying inside
He is to proud to show us he is afraid
He is my father and proud of his courage
His will to fight for one more day
I know we had our hard days
I hope he knows how much
I love him so
I make a promise today
I will live my life to the fullest
Just like he would want me to be
I can't stop giving up that there
is always a miracle
That there is alway that one chance
I cry as I write my aching heart out on paper
I know my mom will take care of me after my dad is gone
Daddy you will always remain in my heart,I love you
I will end this letter or poem that I have written
I will have great memories of the times you
were with me in my life dad
I'm going to miss you
Love you daddy
I always will
