I will never say goodbye to you, my father,
because I know this is not the end for us to see each other.
You will only be going to a place where there's no pain or suffering.
I am happy for you, for you will be with God.
This poem is the most beautiful thing I have ever read. I just lost my Dad. I was a Daddy's Girl, and he was my very best friend. I became an engineer because he was an engineer. I looked up...

Dear Dad, I can't believe it's been two years;
It feels like it was only yesterday.
I wish you were still here,
But the sky is the place you stay.

I hope I make you proud, Dad; even though you're no longer here,
Your memory grows stronger with every passing year.
At the end it was a battle, one you weren't to win.
I was 15 years old when my dad left us. I could not believe it. I love you for being you and raising us differently than others. The way you guided me was very different. Though I am a girl,...
I love you Dad with all my heart
And hate that we should be apart
Our love is a bond that can't be broken
You may be gone but never forgotten
I lost my dad last week. I never got to say goodbye. I'm lying here wishing that I had one moment to tell you I love you. I lie here thinking about when I was a little girl and you were...
The day you answered God's call
Left an empty space
My world came crashing down
I couldn't breathe...couldn't talk...
I lost my dad a month after my 16th birthday. He was a my very best friend and hero in many ways. I can relate to this poem because I still love him even if he's not around physically. I...
Dear Dad;
Another year has passed that you have been gone
Oh how I wish that I could turn back time;
I lost my dad nearly 20 years ago. As a parent myself, all I would want for my child when I die is that he continues in the vein I have taught him. To embrace life and accept reality. Go on...
The golden lights are twinkling
With Christmas in the air;
Bing Crosby sweetly singing,
And snowflakes in my hair.
You could have written this poem for me - it will be my first Christmas without my husband. I've written a similar poem myself, but if you check it out you will find it's not as good as...
During the day I have to be strong
I try so hard to show that nothing is wrong.
But at night my tears will flow.
It was just so sudden you had to go.
My father, Peter, died on May 29, 2016. He was everything to me, and he made my life so much better. He always listened to me. He always stayed by my side in good and bad times. He was my...
Dad,
You have been gone one whole year and nothing is the same.
It seems like it was just yesterday that the angels called your name.
Every morning when I wake up, I think it was just a nightmare,
You used to spoil me rotten
With all your love and care
But now each time I look for you
You suddenly aren't there
My daddy passed away recently from pneumonia after fighting lung and bone cancer. It's been a difficult time but knowing that he's not in pain anymore and that he's at rest has really helped....
Words cannot explain
how much you mean to me
nothing could ever compare
or even ever be
An hour ago, I received a call from my sister that my dad had just passed away. I had visited my dad 2 months ago, and he wasn't looking well then. I knew that would be the last time I would...
Moments before our walk that afternoon,
I realized the path ended too soon.
Not long enough to hold his hand,
this amazing person, this loving man.
And he puts his boat in the water for the last time
A tear will fall for the last time
I wipe the tears from my face with your old shirt for the last time
I cry about the last time I said goodbye to you
My dad has cancer and he is probably going to die like my Aunt Rose did. She died of the same thing I've had way to many people die in my life everytime I get to be close to them they die. My...
I promise to carry on your contagious smile.
The same one that would light up a room the minute you walked in.
I promise to laugh and never take myself too seriously.
I promise to love harder and forgive faster.
I was 19 when my brother Brian, 21(a soldier), was killed in Afghanistan. He'd been married for 3 1/2 months when he died, and left behind a giant number of people who love him. This poem...
I can't believe I'm standing here,
Saying my goodbyes
To a Dad who meant the world to me,
My Dad with big brown eyes.
I am poem fanatic...I am truly touched by your poems of death of a father/ grandfather!!!! Please continue to help all that grieves a loved one...Your poems are heart felt.
My heart changed when you left.
Time froze and I wanted to hide.
It was a moment that will stay with me forever...
the day my Daddy died.
I lost my dad last March in 2016. It will be a year in 2 days. I too had a strained relationship with my dad and had just re-connected before Thanksgiving in 2015, just 2 1/2 months before he...
I'd tell you about my dad
if only I knew where to start.
No longer here to see me,
but forever in my heart
Another year has come,
and you're still so far away.
You're always in my heart
each and every day.
It is so hard to lose the one you love. When I am 11 I got lazy to visit my best friend and I asked him that he will be the one to come over my house. When I texted him, he replied that he's...
It was a month ago on a warm spring day,
When you said "Goodbye Sugar" then slowly slipped away.
A giant of a man to which no one could compare,
Handsome and tall with silver gray hair.
It will be 10 years next month that I lost my Dad. I was the middle of the three girls he had. I wasn't his oldest and I wasn't his baby, but he counted on me when I grew up. He knew he could...
I have no words that can express
How much love I have for you.
You taught me everything I know,
Through the years as I grew.
