Birthday Wishes

Dear Mochi,

Another birthday approaches. I thought you would be home by now, but you are not. You are still missing.

In your room, I see your toys. They call to me. The Lego’s you love so much, waiting for you to bring them to life again. The books I read to you and you had just started to read to me, before your mother kidnapped you from the only world you had known.

The last time I saw you was on Father’s Day 2010. You were to have a week-long visit with her. If only I had somehow known. I could have stopped her. It was the last time I heard your voice, except in the stillness of my mind. She has tried to silence you, to erase me from thoughts. You know better, your will is strong. Deep inside you the truth burns bright.

I am doing everything I know how to do, even when I feel I can’t try anymore. I get up each day and try some more.

Birthdays come and go.

My love for you will not cease.

I am your father.
