My son my heart breaks every single day that ur away from me. Nothing or no one could ever fill that empty void in my heart n soul. It kills me that I could never hear ur voice again, see u smile again, n hang out with u again. It pains me to write this to u my eyes filled with tears knowing that ur no longer here with me physically but know this ur with me in my heart n soul every second, every minute, every day, n every night for the rest of my life. I luv u n I miss you so much! R.I.P. my son! Luv always, Dad!!!
