PAPA, MY SUPERHERO, MY BACKBONE.

My first ever superhero, my pride,

Who is always with a broad smile, who could never bear when I cried,

Who always took care of all my most minor needs undescribed,

Who never let me fall off any slide.

I stood bold and still, relying on his courage,

His eyes spoke a thousand languages to teach,

None of my faults ever made him judge me,

He always told me that I was his princess without any edge.

In his presence, no evil eyes ever dared to touch,

No stress ever dared to smudge,

My clutch was never empty in his presence,

I knew he could do anything to make me happy; he was such.

After him, I came to know that life is so tough,

Anyone could easily bluff,

Sun could be so blazing, and path could be so rough,

Life got entangled in worries and sorrows also handcuffed.

Without you, my life is like an aimless kite,

And I feel the burns of the sand beneath my feet,

I am surprised that the world has many heartless tyrants,

Whose gestures make us fall off the summits.

The world is such a difficult place without you, dad,

After you, everyone quickly gets mad,

No one ever makes out that I am sad,

Now, nothing can ever make me glad.

You are resting in peace in the heaven above,

It is a request, come back to me flying from above, like a dove,

Doesn’t your heart squeeze out for my love?

I am utterly helpless without you and cannot move.

Papa, I love you immensely,

Your absence has made me incomplete intensely.

NOOR TABASSUM.
