DAD

Good morning Dad,
I know you can hear me,
And furthermore can see me,
I know you are here with me,
So please listen to me.

I learnt not to hurt from your harshness
I knew how to love from your pieces
Broken pieces of advices
Intertwined in jokes and laughter
A bond that still connects me to you.

Hardwork and persistence,
Perfection and excellence,
Courage and curiosity
A perfect blend of honey and butter
All this if not are written in my heart.

My 21st birthday branded me those gifts.
A part of you that glowed with utmost beauty
Search a rare species of mankind
Beloved of my mother
I still love and loved you.

My heart still craves for your passion,
Your protection,
Your provision,
Your compassion,
And Your musical obsession.

I know the wall can hear me pray to you
And that the smokes will reach this message to you,
That not only do I miss you,
But also care about your empty seat,
And all this beautiful unworn coats on the wall.
