Dear Dad

Do you not miss your daughter
Whose smile now lacks laughter?

Do you not miss a human
For whom your love should have been the one

Yes I know I come from a broken condom
But loving costs nothing, just to bring you into tandem

Of all the memories you are going to give me
In one of them I wish there’s a smile, to have me

They say click pictures with your parents
They don’t mention those that were never happy to be parents

Yes you are content to see me around
Listen up, that’s your ego’s control sound

Love is not warnings married to fear
Sometimes, it’s all about saying “I’m here”

(PS: I had written this sonnet many months ago. But for anyone feeling the same emotions today, here you go.)
