true life storyy..
I can still clearli remember that year.
The year i left school
The decision i made to stay with you.
The smile i get
The warmth i feel
whenever you're around
whenever you get home from werk.
Der was never a moment you made me feel unwanted.
Never a dull tyme when around you.
You got sick.
I was blinded.
There were signs that you werent going to stay for long
But they went unnoticed.
Till.
One day, you came out of your room
And kissed my forehead
You said if either one of us were to go
before the other.
At least we said our last goodbye.
I was afraid to admit.
I swallowed it whole.
Then came that week.
That one week before you had to go.
I got sick.
I couldnt eat.
I couldnt drink.
Day after day
I cry myself to sleep
Telling myself to get better
Der was a need to be a better daughter
I got up
I went to the doctor.
Thursday came
His friends came over.
Food. Laughter.
It was good for awhile.
Till.
I saw that look he gave me.
Worry. Calm.
I knew but i didnt want to face it.
Good God.
He was leaving.
They left.
Glanced at the clock
Smiled.
"Happy Bdae, Baby"
I told myself as i walk to the rm.
He was standing der,
abt to close his door on me
when..
I saw him looking at me.
In that one moment,
I went speechless.
I smiled and closed my door
That was..
The last i saw his eyes on me
The last i saw of dat smile
The last i saw my father standing in front of me
Breathing.
Daddy, i mish you.
kae sulaiman.
