Five years have come and gone, my dear Papa, but time has not dulled the pain of losing you, my heart still aches, And memories of you still remain.
The sound of your voice, the way you would place your palm on your right cheek, deep in thought.
Papa, I miss your guidance, your wisdom, and your advice.
The memories that time can’t erase.
I’ll keep you close to my heart.
I’ll keep your memory alive.
Though you’re not here to see your grandchildren grow, I know you’re watching from above,
By the way, they are doing some cool stuff, you would have been impressed.
Papa, Though the years may come and go, My love for you will always be enough.
So here’s to you, my dear Papa, Though you’ve been gone for five long years,
My love for you will never fade, I will always cherish my memories of you.
We miss you, Papa!
