Dad…
Thank you for everything you have done.
Whenever we needed the strength or the encouragement,
you have always been there.
When we were playing soccer,
you would always be cheering us on.
When we reached a challenge,
you were helping us,
and I know you always will.
Don’t worry, you can let us go.
You have always encouraged us to do the right thing,
to find our own way.
However, we were never alone in doing that,
for you were there.
You have kept us safe in times of danger,
and made us happy in times of sadness.
Thank you for being our hero and our idol.
We will always look up to you
and follow in your caring and loving footsteps.
We will carry on your dreams
and follow you wherever you go.
But that’s our job.
Don’t worry about it.
You can let us go.
For this journey we all must take,
but each must face it alone.
You’ve prepared us for it.
You’ve prepared us well.
So don’t worry about us, we’ll be fine.
We will carry on.
We’ve remembered everything you’ve taught us,
and you’ve done everything you had to.
You can let us go.
We won’t let you down,
we will try our best,
When we look up at the night sky,
we will always remember the wonderful times we’ve had together.
These memories bring us closer
and help us realize the great moments we have shared.
Thank you for being our dad!
Dad, remember,
wherever we are,
no matter how far,
we will always remember you inside of our hearts.
You won’t be forgotten.
Now, your job is fulfilled,
you’ve raised us well,
time to let us go.
We all love you.
We will always love you.
