Dear Dad,
the last time I saw you, you were on the verge of the other side.
Your cold hands dropped before my eyes,
denying me the luxury of being held by them.
But I am grateful to you because you left a woman who took the form of a Dad.
So I say thank you.
Thank you, because your absence has made me strong.
Thank you because you left us a legacy.
And to Woman who's been a Dad
I say thank you.
I know your struggles, I know your sacrifices and I see your efforts.
And I tell you that one day, it will yield good fruits.
Thank you for not giving up, thank you for not letting go and thank you for keeping us right.
I love you now and always.
From your beloved son
Ubasinachi Allison.
