Dear dad,
My school counselor told me that because I'm having a hard time dealing with your death I should write my feelings down in a letter. So here I go:
I miss you. So much. I feel so alone without you. It's only been two weeks but it feels like it's been years. Why'd you have to leave? I wasn't ready! I wasn't ready for you to go.
Mom went on another one of her trips. She left a note in the counter. It said: 'I'll be gone for a few days.' She also left me $50. I guess she's upset about you in her own way.
I heard her talking to someone on the phone the other day. She said: "I wish I said that I loved him more." I wish I'd said it more too. So, I'll say it now.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you

Dear dad,
Today was your funeral. It was actually kind of nice. I'd say you would have liked it but I don't think anyone can like their own funeral. We played the Beatles, had the flowers you proposed to mom with, Kaiya even came home. I wore the blue dress you got me for Christmas last year. Mom wore the black one she wore on your anniversary. Kaiya was... Kaiya.
Tomorrow we're going to bury you. God, that hurts to say.
We're going to bury you with your favorite things. Your Beatles CD, a picture of all four us, you and mom's wedding pictures, me and Kaiya's baby pictures. Maybe some other stuff.
I really don't want to. But mom says I have to. She says I have to move on, says I have to say goodbye. I don't think I'm ready to say goodbye yet though.
I love you.

Dear dad,
We did it. We buried you. I left flowers there. At your grave. I've been crying so much my chest hurts. Mom locked herself in her room.
Dad, thinking about you hurts. It hurts so bad.
I don't want it to hurt. I want to be happy. But I'm not.
If you were here I know what you'd tell me. You'd say "you have to hold on and ride out the storm."
So I will. I'll do it for you. I'll ride out the storm.
I love you.
