A Message from a Father's soul..

by Reema Agarwal

For me only one is beautiful.

For me only one is wonderful.

A sea is called a sea

Because of water.

I am called by my name

Because of my daughters.

The day maybe dark,

but I find my light in their smile.

And if, sometimes,they cry,

I lose my soul to the sky.

The sky weeps rain

And my tears flow all over them.

Their heart is as beautiful as a lovely poem.

I maybe no more, but my soul still loves them.

Oh no! How can I get angry?

How can I leave them in misery?

Oh!Let me suffer in place of them!

Let my heart pain in place of them!

I call them, but they can't hear.

This is one pain, I can't bear!

Lord! Help me!

I am all alone in this dark world.

Let them hear me when I shout.

I want to hold their hands

And let them know I am there.

They are the only ones I care.

Like two roses are their faces.

I want to shower them with embraces.

This is my love,this is my poem.

I maybe no more,but my soul still loves them.

Reema,

Rhyming words....have come out well in your poem. I wrote a short story on similar lines which got deleted when I posted my next item. If time permits pl read my short story "The Punishment" posted in this site. Are you from UP or Punjab? I am in Chennai. All the very best.

Hi Reema,

I love the storyline and the ideas in your short piece. There are some interesting things to learn from it. I too love to write about human behaviour and I do it with non-fiction.

The text needs a lot of editing though. For example, the name Champagne was a bit of a hangup for me and it appeared far too often.

Are you going to write more about this?
