It’s your birthday Dad

But I am feeling sad

Because you are not here

For whom I party and cheer

 

You love your chocolate cake

As well as some chips with steak

Always looking forward to your gifts

Your lovely smile automatically lifts

 

Today just feels so empty

I was looking forward to plenty

I am aching from the inside

This feeling, I can just not hide

 

I will still celebrate your birthday

This time, in a different way

Feeding the poor, helping the needy

Your princess has a big heart, not greedy

 

You come into my dreams

You are in a safe place it seems

Always happy and smiling

Like a beautiful star shining

 

So, happy birthday my hero

Without you, my life feels zero

Not forgetting I am your daughter, your princess

One that strives to be number one and gain success!
