Missing my Daughter's

I will watch the world burn and dance on the ashes to protect you my daughter's.  My love for you is eternal.  My vigilance over your future is the ambition of my life.  All that I do, I do for you.  Every thought in my head and every action I take is for the benifit of you.  My life is yours to do with as you please.  I am your protector, I am your confidant.  I will never leave your side.

I cannot fathom my life without you, you are what makes me whole.  You are what my existnce has come to. Vigilance over you.  I pray for your happiness, I pray you find someone who will love you forever and hold you close to their chest in even the worst of days.  I never thought I could love so deeply but the first time I looked into your eyes I knew there would be no one else.  I would tear this world apart to find you if lost.   I will move the very mountains themselves if it pleases you.  The love a father feels for his children can never be matched.  Marriages come and go but the love of a parent will never fade.

The Love I feel for you my daughters scares me so completely.  I had never feared death until the moment you entered my life.  I feared not being there as you grew, holding you when you cried.  Laughing with you.  My bubling child you deserve the best life has to offer, your kindness your heart fills me so completely I secretly cry at your absence.  Can a man really have such love for his children that to be without them is torture?

Your are gone, for a short time I am without you.  You are finding joy in the exploration of the world without me.  I am so happy for you yet I cannot escape the feeling of misery at your departure.  I should be happy for time to myself yet my mind keeps turning to your smiling faces.  Like a ghost I keep expecting to see you around every corner yet when I turn only shadow exists.  Can a father love his offspring so much their absense brings pain?

I write this in the dark of the night the air cold on my feet, a single light illumates my desk and my computer screen makes my eyes bleary.  Writing this is all that consoles me.  I cannot look on you asleep in your bed so I must imagine your presence in my mind.  I wish you safety and happiness.
