I lost my mother 24 years ago now. I can't believe it's been that long. I can still hear her laugh sometimes, the way she'd snort if she laughed too hard. Then she'd laugh about that. She only lived to be 39. Not even four snaps. Very heartfelt poem, thank you for sharing it.

Sharon

I really liked your poem. My Dad passed away 5 years ago 23 March 2000. It dosent get easier does it. In fact time makes it worse. Not a day goes by when i havent thought about him at least 5 times a day if not more. I missed his passing but was there half hour after. I could not stop kissing him, touching him. My tears fell on his eyes. I was hoping he would awake. I can really associate with your poem. Well done. x

Heather

beautiful images. the snap reference was unique and it was good you explained the idea in the intro. I just lost my Dad- he had over 8 snaps and it was still too soon. Bless you for such a view of loss so identifiable to me, and others to be sure.

I think the poem was so great and I couldn't believe how true it was and when my dad died of leukemia four years ago, I couldn't bieleve it and I didn't want to either. and it feels like yesterday that he died. Your poem made me burst into tears practically when I read it b-cuz it is so true! love ya. and take care. p. s. I am really sorry about your dad!

Your poem was really great and it really touched me. I'm very sad that you lost your dad. I don't know how it feels, but I know it would be hard to live without my dad, too. I'm very very sorry for you, and that was a sweet poem.

Oneida

This is a great poem that I've read Today it really touched my heart when i first heard the song because it is TRUE! i lost my father Nov 21,02 and it really hit me very hard i could'nt take the pain i felt inside my heart. and my adivce to people would be to cherish every moment that you have with your family and friends, always remember to forgive and forget, never hold gruges .

ROBERTA

This is a great poem, exactly what I'd love to be able to write. It says everything i feel,I also lost my father 16 years ago. There is not a day goes by that i dont think of him and wonder why, he was only 49 years old. I miss him. Time doesnt heal it only dries of the everyday tears. This poem brought out those tears,I've cried for the last 2 hours.

Melan

Ur poem touched me in a way i never thought possible. I lost my dad just 7 months ago today, and the pain is still unbearable. I never thought anyone could ever feel the same pain and emptiness in their hearts as i do in mine. Your poem really hit the spot for me. It was like i was reliving the whole experience. I am very sorry to hear of the passing of your dad, and know that there are other people out there who have been in similiar situations. I know how hard it is to wake up each morning and realise that your dads not there and never will be. I am only 18 years of age and lost my dad at the age of 44. He was way to young to die and it was so unexpected and i think thats what hurts the most. I dread the future when i will finally get married and have kids and they will never knew their grandfather, nor will i ever have my dad to walk me down the isle. Just know that there are others out there who know your pain. Mel

Charm

This is so much the way I feel. I lost my father on 3-20-99, Just two years ago froma Heart Transplant. he was and still is My Hero. I cry everyday because I miss his so much. I will never get over the pain. Who ever says it will get easier has never lost a loved one like my dad, my hero

sarah

Cinnaman

I feel very much for you, I don't exactly know how it feels to feel so strongly for your father, but I do know how it feels to miss him so much. I lost my dad when I was 7, I didn't get to go to his funeral because I was in the hospital, but This poem, really made me cry, something I haven't done in awhile for him. Thanks, you really released that pinned up emotion and desire to have my dad.

lisa
