He Lives Within Me

-Tyler, Santa Cruz

I wish my dad didn’t die. Unfortunately, he’s dead. I can’t bring him back. They say to keep someone alive, you have to remember them. That’s true, I believe. 

My heart mirrors my dad’s. Every time I see my reflection in the window, I see my dad. My dad is my best friend. I remember all the good qualities my dad has. 

He lives within me.
