I know you’re in a better place, but daddy, at night I can’t sleep. You had a pain that I could not heal; a void that I could not fill. The day you left, God made you whole but He also took a piece of my soul. It’s selfish to want you to stay, but I wasn’t ready for you to leave. I’m trying to be strong for your grandson and watch him like you told me. I never knew my eyes could cry this much. Your favorite color was blue, and now I am too. I will hold on to your memories, your lessons and wisdom. I pray you saw your mothers face at the Lord’s throne, and she told you how much she missed you. Through these tears, and this pain, I can smile at the good times. And last night I got your message that everything will be fine. When it rained, I knew God opened heaven’s gate for you.
