A Daughter's Tribute to her Father

My Love,
It is now a year since you left me, I miss you desperately and wish you were here
with me, life is not the same now, I struggle to calm down after losing you. You
are and still my life, you are my world, I miss you, your voice... I hear it everyday
ringing in my ears, I see you at the base of the stairs in my house, I see you at the
entrance of my house and walking to your car my love. I still see your eyes
twinkle whenever you are with Nouf. I miss you, my love, there will never be
another you. You will be in my heart today and forever, you are with me always
my love. My world is shattered without you but I know you are in a better and
rested place.
Already a year today, time passes my love but you will and always be in my heart.
You will never be forgotten and I am so sorry you had to experience all these
mishaps.
My Love, the day you left me was the most painful day in my life. You did not
leave me with a smile, you were taken away from me and were handled by
strangers while I watched. I am only grateful that you left me without seeing your
surroundings (Hospital monitors, needles, strange hands touching you… )
I am grateful that you did not hear their medical conversations, this is a comfort to me,
my love.
You were a gift my love, but now you are a gift to God from us.
I am also comforted that I was by your side and was the last voice you heard while
you were in the process of leaving me. I am also grateful to be the last one to kiss
your face when you were going. I know my love that you felt and heard me
because your spirit was still in the room with me and around me.
Rest in peace sweetheart. May God’s angels watch over you safe until I am with
you again. Sleep well my prince, you deserve your rest and thank you so much
for being my father.
I miss you my darling Daddy.
 
Your loving daughter,
