A letter to a father..

Dad..!!

You love me..??

From my childhood i have seen you with a pride,

I feel very lucky to have blessings of a father, lucky than the others who thrive for one.

We hear many story's of father killing his own baby child, am thankful for you letting me born and live this life to the fullest, you gave me everything that a child wants,

Food, Clothing and Shelter.

Isn't this a basic requirement to be alive.?

But dad you have forgotten to give me one thing,

Time, Love, Care..

Dad i don't have much knowledge about the world so i might be wrong in counting all this elements for living a complete and a happy life.

You have given all the things i needed, when i asked for any materialistic things, you always tried your level best to give me.

But dad you forgot to give me your time..!!

You were so busy in collecting money, it is indeed needed especially in today's time of inflation. But then dad don't you think we are loosing those special moments of life.

My childhood, My small little happy days that wont ever return back.

Dad, do you love me??

Why cant you just utter these three magical words to me, i am your own daughter, right??

Dad i really wanted you at many a times,

At the time of my first day of school and also at the time when i had met with my first defeat,

When i wanted your shoulder, where were you dad??

You tell  me to share with you anything wrong that would ever happen with me, but dad what about those good things that happen with me, when can i share with you.

We have one day out of the whole week when we sit together, then how do you remember about your friends.

Am i not your friend, you only said that you are to be my best friend, then??

Dad, do you care about me??

I still remember you have mentioned that i must share with you, but dad don't you think you have little far from me, it is this cell phone that connects us. Atleast Nokia is successful by really Connecting People.

Dad do you even remember, the last time we all went out for a family togetherness.

Dad, do you trust me??

Then why do want to check my phone, why do you have troubles when you find my phone waiting.

Dad what can i do, i am all alone at home,

I have never told you but i feel very bad to be here alone, I feel that i am in a cage with four wall, food to eat and air to breathe.

Dad, do you feel happy when i achieve success?

If its true then why don't you tell me one good word, why don't you say good words before i leave for my competitions, that you trust me and you know that i would achieve success and it's alright if i don't win as victory is not all that matters, just give your best.

Dad, are you happy watching me alive in this world?

Mama had told me that i had very less chance of living when i was about to born, if you are happy then why don't you tell me, why do you say that no use of feeding all this people.

Why do say that i cant do anything in life and i would be marrying to a person who would want me to be a housewife.

Why dad??

Don't you think that your daughter can do something more than just marry and conceive a child.

Is it all for a girl??

Dad, do you feel ashamed to get a girl child??

Then why don't you encourage me in moving ahead in life, why do you just think about people and society. Have this world and the people fed me, gave me this life.?

Then dad why to think about all those people, dad they will keep telling thousand things but dad you know me right?? You know my heart??

Dad, i can fight with all the world, but can't win anything if i don't have you and your support.

Dad, why do you feel that i would leave you, how can i forget that its you who gave me this life, dad i might be angry with you but dad i really love you, i love you so much that i can leave all my happiness just and just for you.

Dad i have wanted nothing but your love and faith in me,

I assure you dad that i would never let your name fall down, never dad.

But i just want is your hand, your assurance that you would be at my back when i fall..

You would give me your shoulder when i feel weak,

Dad do you love me?? 

I would spend my whole life with a wish that you would say this three magical words to me.

Dad i am hoping that you realise this very soon, before the time pass by and its too late,

That i have always wanted your time, your care, your love, i can stay without all the pleasures of life but just with you.

Yours,

Daughter
