Missing You Poem

In memory of a loving dad who his daughter never got the chance to know.

A Loving Dad

© Patricia M. Green
I wish I had my dad by my side
Just thinking of him makes me cry
Never being able to get to know him
Hurts me inside everyday that goes by
The stories I hear
To my eyes they bring a tear
Before I had to say good-bye
I wish with him I had more time
My mom lets me know how much he cared
Since I was too young to have my own memories to share
Seeing pictures of him I want to know
Why so soon he had to go
Good things that he did to help someone else
Hearing about that just makes my heart melt
I just hoped that the time with him could have been longer
Because I know he was a loving husband and father
I am sad that we are apart
I miss my dad with all my heart

  • This is perfect.. I never knew my dad either. he died just 2 months before I was born. I hear stories about him all the time and it just makes me want to cry. Everybody tells me I look like him and he would have been a great dad that would have done anything to make me happy.

  • I was 6 when my dad pass way and 8 years on it hasn't hit me. I hate Christmas and birthdays because he is not there to see them all, and I feel I didn't get to know him. Yes I see lots of picture and hear lots of stories, but I wish it was him here telling me them not my family. My dad, the one that made them, you know. That poem it made me cry soo much. now I know I'm not the only young child missing her daddy so much.

  • My dad passed away when I was 25 days old. I hate parties and charismas because I feel alone and this poet really did a great job.
