goodbye, father

goodbye, father

A Poem by khalid
"

maybe we dont recognize what father is when he is with us, but if we lose him, we feel guilty that we couldnt recognize what he is!

"

 

In my life, I had some bad days, but today, it is my worst

It is hard to lose someone dear, I have lost my dearest

The one who used to care, regardless to what  in my wallet

He used to share my sadness not only at a joy moment

All night he used to stay awake, if I am  to have a test

 on his kind voice, up I wake, come, take your breakfast

Oh dad, all night awake! Why didn’t you take some rest?

 go to your test, do your best, this is all my needed rest

and when tests are over I get the marks, rated the first,

I still feel when he pulls me proudly to his chest

The past part of my life, I used to him, what about the rest?

Now I feel like a weak animal alone in a wild forest

Hope you can come back, just to kiss your wrest 

Look at you and say,dearest, hope now, you can rest

I hadn't realized your loss is as recent as mine, which was October 21, 2011. Go and read my "Prayers" chapter, this is part of the same book I wrote after my husband died.
