I am strong enough to find the truth. I am strong enough to be the truth. I will unravel it, shake it, lock it within the relms of my soul forever. When I find you daddy, I will hold you close. Maybe this small contact will fill the years of emptiness, fill the hole in my heart. You'll be my other half, keeping me together when I've held on for so long without you. Someone once asked me if I really cared, and I do, believe me. But my step dad has always been there. I'll give him credit, he's helped me grow up. But that hole will never be filled until I find my truth, my rock. I will find you, I will keep serching until I can grasp your hands. Maybe we'll have to wait a hundred years until then, but at least we'll be together.

I love you, whoever you are Dad. I exist, and I'm looking for you.

Honey, I hope you find your father. I'll be praying for you, and I absolutely loved this work. Great job, sweetheart.
