She has tears in her eyes, lying on her bed in the night…
She misses the strong hug from the first love of her life…
She is a just a child, who needs endless love and nurture…
The care, the feel of protection that only her dad could provide…
She has her hands folded, pleading to the Almighty…
“Why did you take him away from me?” – She cried…
With no answer she wept… With no answer she slept…
He was watching her from the heavens- a painful sight…
He wanted her to be safe… wanted her to be daunting strong…
He wanted her to take care… wanted her to survive and fight…
Fight through the obstacles of life… protect her worried mom…
But she is just a child, who needs a lot of love… a hug so tight.
She wakes up the next day… just like any other day…
She promises herself to be strong… to be brave in life…
She goes out into the world to work hard and stay ahead…
She feels insecure inside but she wears her fearless smile…
No one knows her pain, no one can see her heart’s void…
He watches her from the heavens, her eyes’ with a pearl…
He watches this lionheart, her courageous indomitable spirit…
He is in peace as he knows… this little braveheart is daddy’s girl…
