I Am Sorry Dad Poem by Naveed Iqbal

I am Sorry……Dad.
I am sorry Dad……
For not being able to see all your love and care
You were like the Sun that always glow
Filled our lives with warmth and tenderness
Like a shining Star and the wind that blows

I am sorry Dad……
For not being able to say all that should’ve been said
Many a times I kept it thinking that you’ll always be here
To guide me teach me, hold me and give me strength
Now that you have gone I feel so lost and have so much to fear

I am sorry Dad……
For all those who were like your child and left you in your time
Although deeply hurt, filled with anger but I do not mind
Coz in time they will see, sooner or later they will realize
A Brother, a Father, a Friend, a Mentor like you will be hard to find

I am sorry Dad……
For taking it all so easy, for being so close yet so apart
Thank you for everything coz who I am is because of you
No words can say what I really feel but still I want you to know
Till the end of time you’ll be in my heart and I’ll always love you

Written today in memory of my Father who died on 19th June 2011
