Poppa,
the house is so empty now that you're gone. i see your truck in the drive way and keep thinking its just a dream, but no matter how hard i close my eyes and beg, you're still gone. i try to remember that it's only your body thats gone, and that you're still with me. but i want you here, you only got to dance with me in my white communion dress, and thats not enough for me. I LOVE YOU POPPA AND I WILL ALWAYS MISS YOU.
