Shadow Of Pain Poem by MELVIN BANGGOLLAY

SHADOW OF PAIN
Melvin Banggollay

My tender eyes weep
Teardrops falling deep
As memory rewind
when you’re still mine.

Many years had passed
To turn you unto dust
But you’re still behind
Deep in my serene mind

I missed those times
You talked so very kind
Even I made mistakes
I had stupidly partaked

I felt deep emptiness
Of being left alone
To walk in the fortress
Of life misfortunes.

I used to have you Dad
When life troubles so bad
Here with me by my side
To share strength beside.

You’re always with me
In every dream I see
Guiding me lovingly
As I sail my life journey.

Someday, somehow daddy
We’ll be one there someday
Just wait there patiently
Till God will also take me
