Letter to my father

If I could write a story
It would be the greatest ever told
I'd write about the man who bore me
For I doubt he had a heart
My ink wouldn't be enough to pen down

The lines of my poem would go beyond
My dad, he was no hero
We never wanted him to be one either
I tried understanding the colors on him
But the more I tried; the more I realized they were in vogue

I'd write a letter to him instead;

The lessons we weren't thought by him
That family was everything
That we were his flesh and blood
To always be there for your loved ones

Oh!! Sorry, my bad; I doubt he knows what that even means

Oh!! Sorry, my bad; I doubt he knows what that even means

Dear Father,

Lots of unsaid words I have for you

Lots of heartbreaks gotten from waiting

Lots of unanswered questions; but in the end, will the answers quench my thirst

Many times I wondered. I hoped. I waited. I thought; then I stopped thinking

But this is how far my pen can go

They said;

Loving someone requires feelings

Hating someone requires feelings

But, when I look at you, I feel nothing

As a child, I believed the colors on my dad were faint, until I grew up and learnt that they were no longer in "VOGUE"
