Papa | Muskan Anmol Khullar

Time, they say, heals all the pain.

But they never said how to deal with that pain. Isn’t that insane ?

Poles apart, there lived a piece of my heart,

Who taught me the way to life and how to respect mumma, sister and my wife.

In the blink of an eye, he just became the brightest star,

that he just seemed so far.

Glancing at my phone’s screen,

Wishing to see ‘papa’ ringing on it, is now just a dream.

He used to say, ‘weak are those who cry’,

To hide my tears and smile is the only thing I try.

It’s been months I’ve seen his ever shining smile and glowing face,

That literally helped me get through life’s race.

You are the perfect example of a gentleman,

But nothing changes the fact, that I was and always be your biggest fan.
