Tears flew unbidden when I saw your ashen face,
Felt like gone is my breathe and its every trace.

Screaming uncontrollably I woke up with a jolt,
That moment life made me realize my each and every fault.

I ran downstairs, as fast as I could,
Seeing you peacefully asleep I heard my own lude.

Sweating bullets, Ungoverned sob,
I found myself as a lonely cob.

Coz you are my hero my daddy,
Life without you is like an empty caddy.

Suddenly I fancy the times you hauled me over the coals,
And your that face, with pride when your eyes toles.

I value every sacrifice you've made, your love your care,
I value everything you do coz you are my only man, handsome and fair.

I died a thousand deaths, thinking how much I pained you with all my madness,
And in this moment of realization I cried the drops of moonlit sadness.

This little piece of poetry is for my dad. That one dream made my love for him to increase several folds.
