Through the years, time slipped away,
Love for Dad unsaid, in the fray.
Busy lives, work's relentless tide,
Expressions of love, we chose to hide.

Decades danced with a business theme,
Heartfelt conversations remained a dream.
Hospital walls, a stark reality,
God's grace granted a final decree.

In silence, his eyes spoke profound,
Unspoken love, a connection unbound.
In those weeks, a sacred space,
Emotions unveiled in that tender embrace.

"I love you," whispered, long overdue,
Appreciation expressed, feelings true.
Regret lingered, a silent, haunting cry,
Wishing sooner, love didn't shy.

Millions lament, words left unsaid,
In the heart, the weight of what's dead.
Share your love before the dusk,
Life's too brief, an ephemeral husk.

Speak your heart, let emotions flow,
Before the final, inevitable blow.
For in silence, regret finds its reign,
Express your love, release the pain.
