"The love of a daughter & Father"



The love of a daughter~
 I did not know my dad, when I was young; I knew he was here and there, not really near:
  The day I met you, so long ago; I knew you were a part of me from day one, that you were my dad.
  Every day that went by, that you could not be near:
I always held you in my thoughts and they were always dear.
The love of a father never fades, no matter if he can be right there or he's far away.
 The love of a father is never too little, or too much.
The love of a daughter is always the same, the love of a daughter will never change.
You're my father, my daddy, whether near or far. I will always love you whether night or day,
Till the day we can be together again, I love you now & I love you then;
We will be together in the end.
 "The Love of A Daughter & Father"
