LIFE BLOG POST : The Father I Never Had

in #life7 years ago

I Love You Dad


I love you dad,
with my entire heart.
I've felt this way,
from the very start.

You've been there form me,
through thick and thin.
My love for you,
comes from deep within.

You're a wonderful man,
that I honour and respect.
Our precious memories,
I often reflect.

For raising me,
I'm completely grateful,
Thank you for showing me.
to never be hateful.

I'll admit,
Our life is real sweet.
Having you in it,
is a blessing and treat.

I will always love you,
my father, my shield.
I hope that this poem,
my feelings revealed.

I think this poem will remind us all to let our fathers know how much we love them. They need to hear it from us, just like anyone else in our lives.

Sure, our fathers may seem very masculine and tough, but that doesn't mean they don't appreciate thoughtful gestures. Especially, when these gestures are from our hearts. If you like the above peom, I recommend that you read it out loud to your dad. If he work and lives far away and you cant do it in person, you could always just call him, as suprise him with it while you can.

I am one of the people who was born and raised without their fathers. I grew up with my grandparents- in which I am forever thankful. I was aware and was told by my mom that my father had family before her. She just knew my father had a family after her getting pregnant with me and they broke up. Three long years after, I still remember that time in my pre-school. There's a man standing right outside the door bawling in tears rushing towards me and bear-hugged me. And that was the first time I saw my father. In that very day he picked me up in school and went straight to our house to talk with my grandparents about things. Due to the good pride of my parents they asked my father to not let his first family be in vain, that he should take care of them for my grandparents will be responsible for me till I grow up .Now, I cant remember his face anymore. I just remember me getting along and playing with him and draw some doodles on his shoes and that was the last precious thing I can remember. You guys are very lucky to have a father guiding you and loving you. Unlike me, and some other people in the world who has never seen their fathers.

At some point in my life, I have questioned myself one time-while having a good coffee at the balcony, what does it feels to have a father? And what would be my life today if i had him on my side?

Yesterday, when I was scrolling down in my facebook app, I saw a name that looks familiar and went straight to my grandparents to ask if they already had mention that name to for the past years. They said it was my Auntie, the sister of my father. I went straight her profile, and after minutes of stalking, I found something! It then made my heart jumps through seconds! knowing I saw the facebook profile of my father. I cant explain what am i feeling at that moment. My brain momentarily paused thinking if there's a need for me to contact him. After hours of contemplating I've decided to message him. I have felt dejection while typing this to him..

Hi I'm Prince, your beggoten son. It's been 23 long years and yet you never had contacted me since then. I was waiting for you. I know you are now living a life out there with your family and I dont have any intentions to ruin it. All I wanted is to have a father figure but thanks to my LOLO who never gets tired in supporting me in any way he can. I dont have grudges on you and will never will have. I am now living a good and contented life here. I just want you to be happy with your family. -your son

It cleaned my heart that time. I can say I am now contented in everything that i have in life! Thanks to my family and friends who were there for me in every challenges that I face. This blog post is intended to all people out there to not take your fathers for granted. Tell them you love them! Speak your hearts out.

If you have questions please feel free to comment as I will answer them later.
