Daddy, I will make you proud :)

As I sit on the bench in this quiet place,

I am just hoping and praying it's a lie.

I've already started to forget your face,

I have no one to stand by.

People from places i don't know

And faces I have never seen,

Have come here, to moan and groan.

Also to ask me how I have been?

What can I say about me?

How should I react to this news?

Honestly, I still cannot believe!

Because they didn't let me see you.

As I wait for the white van to arrive,

I am determined to see you.

The dad, who is perfectly fine,

Not the one, who has now become a dew.

I start to think, what you must be thinking?

What a disappointment I must have been!

A daughter who has not excelled in any wing.

I wish I wasn't so mean.

I'll make you proud of me one day,

And you will be so happy.

I'll work so hard, in some or the other way,

And you will introduce me proudly.

Twently minutes or so had passed,

When I finally saw the vehicle.

To my disappointment you were lost,

I was hoping for some miracle.

As we performed the last rituals,

I could see that you had lost your glow.

I wanted to see, some last memorable particles,

But you were rapped in white, from head to toe.

A thought then occured to me,

What would life be, had you been free?

It would have been bad, I can see.

You would have suffered terribly without your feet!

True, as they say, what happens is for good.

Now it's time for me to move on.

I will never forget my promise to you.

Daddy, I will make you proud!
