AFP Photo 📷@antwallace - 'My special little one': A Christchurch father's message to slain son -
.
John Milne sits on his bed and sobs as he pens an anguished letter to his murdered teenage son Sayyad -- one of 50 people killed in the Christchurch massacre.
.
For a moment, Milne is unsure what to write.
.
What do you say to a boy who dreamed of playing in goal for Manchester United and now never will?
.
After a long pause, the pen starts to move. "I want to do this," he says.
.
"Sayyad Sayyad Sayyad, brave hunter lion. Kind Caring Loving," he begins.
.
Fragments of his son's short life spill out.
.
His son's difficult birth -- "my special little one who had to battle just to live right from the beginning" -- and the hole left in his own heart since the murder.
.
In the aftermath of Friday's attack, AFP photographer Anthony Wallace has kept a whiteboard in his backpack and asked Christchurch residents to write whatever they want on it.
.
Most have chosen messages of unity and defiance.
