I wanted to write something about this poem in the beginning but I think I should leave it up to you to catch up with what this poem conveys yourself.
**************************
My friends mock me everyday
Saying that I'm not a good girl to you
Because it's big brother now not you anymore
Who drops me at school
They say you are a coward
Who hid from the explosions
But they don't know you are gone to fairy land
To bring me the biggest gifts I want
Big brother has gone all silent
Not playing with me anymore
He doesn't laugh at my jokes now
Nor does he smiles which made everybody's heart soar
Grandpa carries me on piggy back
Telling me to look ahead at the horizon
He says if we keep walking
We will meet you where the earth kisses heaven
Grandma bakes me your favorite cookies
Whenever little me cries
She says you love them very much
However with tears in her eyes
Mommy cries and has sleepless nights
Saying she has got the flu
But I know they are all making me a fool
Thinking I don't I have a clue
Don't worry Daddy the war is over
Please come out
Your little girl is sitting on her bed
With her plushie toy
Waiting for you
Where are you daddy?
I need you to clap when I sing
Come to my kingdom soon Oh Daddy
Where I am the princess and you are the King.

A/N: I don't know how to control the tears I shed while writing this. This poem shows the love of an innocent little girl for her father whom she has not met since days. Little did she know that her father gave up his life fighting in the war. Between all the explosions and fighting going on he couldn't make it to meet his family. His unexpected death left his family devastated emotionally. 😢😢😢
The result of a War can go two ways. Either bringing peace in the long run or leaving the whole country in an emotional wreck. But one thing is certain, they leave little souls like this girl void of a loving person forever.
I would be more than happy to know if this feeling of grief was able to be reflected through the lines of this poem.
