Dear Dad....

Trois mois aujourd'hui...
Je pense que même en trois vies ce vide que tu as laissé ne se comblerait pas.
Et ce vide je le ressens encore plus dans les périodes difficiles comme celle que je vis là, celles dans lesquelles plus rien n'a de sens, celles dans lesquelles je n'ai plus le goût pour rien si ce n'est pour hésiter à m'envoler vers cette île loin de tout dont je t'ai si souvent parlé...
Comment dans un jour pareil ne pas penser à ce titre de Ky-mani Marley dont les paroles sonnent si juste pour moi...

Dear God,
I have a letter here from me to dad,
and I want you to know it might be a little sad.
It Goes..

Sometimes I sit and wonder and it makes me blue
But there is one memory that stays on the back of my mind
And this memory got me thinking bout you all the time
Oh Pa, I swear we miss you so
And I wish that you were here to see your boys grow.

In Case you are wondering, Mommy she's doing fine
And tell me story, bout you papa all the time
So when Im down and out, lonely or just feeling blue
All I do daddy is think of you
The thoughts all erase my fears and drive my tears
Im just writing to let you know someone cares

I love you, I Love you, really really love you Daddy
I miss you, I miss you and I know my brothers and sisters do too

And I know you gave your love to the people
And some of whom you can trust they deceive you
But betrayal brings another day
At least thats what my mother say
And when Im thru I'll place this letter in the Bible
And Im gone pray to Jah to send his disciple
To deliver you this letter
It will make me feel better

Dear God,
I have a letter here from me to dad,
and I want you to know it might be a little sad.

Ps: So much things in life to know and so much things to say
But I'm gone send it because I know we'll be together some day
Im just writing to let you know someone cares
And to let you know you left the whole world in tears
