DAD – I miss you …

Dad...Dad...
Calls out my heart but I don’t hear from you anywhere!
Where have u gone Dad, leaving me alone,
Casting sorrows galore and fears unknown???

Every moment from that fateful day -
I wished I could unwind the time...
To save you from grasp of death and keep you amidst us alive,
To soothe away all your pain and fulfill all your wishes,
To drive away all your fears and give you lots of love,
To shower you with joy and embellish you in happiness,
To tell you how much I loved you and how much you meant to me,
And share with you my dreams for us and enjoy life's mysteries.

Daddy dearest, don't go away from me,
As the void you have left cannot be filled,
I need you to be there for me, to care for me, to protect me,
As alone I find it very difficult to surpass each day,
Stumbling on all the blocks that life has thrown in my way.

Dad...Dad...
Calls out my heart but I don’t hear from you anywhere!
Where have u gone Dad, leaving me alone,
Casting sorrows galore and fears unknown???

Come back Dad, come back to our home...
For without you, life’s forlorn,
Come back Dad, come back to our home...
For without you, it's a place unknown.

I know today, that I cannot repay ever...
For all your efforts and all your worries,
And all your love and all your care,
O God ! Why didn’t you grant us an extra moment to spare…

Dad, I only wish today that...
If only once, you could forgive me for all the hurt that I caused to thee,
And let me share with you the concerns of my life,
I’m sure Dad, that there would have been lesser strife,
And we would have understood each other better & been more close in life.

Dad, my heart wants to reach out to you each day,
I know you are listening... and you are not away,
Dad, why-o-why am I witnessing such a day???
Where I can sense you around but not feel you in any way…

Come back Dad, come back to our lives...
To bless on the future of your son, daughter and wife,
Come back Dad, come back to our lives...
Without you, LIFE is just not LIFE.

Bereft of words, this is all I can say,
That with every passing moment,
I'm missing you more n’ more in every way!!

Wishing you were with me for ever…
