My Dearest Daughter

My dearest daughter, far away

Your absence fills my heart with grey

I miss your laughter and your smile

And long to hold you for a while

Though distance keeps us worlds apart

Your memory remains in my heart

I send my love with every thought

And pray for you, as I ought

I dream of the day we reunite

And hold you close, with all my might

Until then, my precious one

Know you're never truly gone

For even though you're far away

Our love will always find a way

To bridge the miles and cross the sea

And bring you close, where you should be

So don't despair, my sweetest girl

Our bond is strong, it will unfurl

And bring us closer day by day

Until we're reunited to stay
