Goodbyes.....

Why do we have to see someone leave?

What does it make us believe?

The relations that we build with our loved ones

the people we meet and see

they create an impression so real

something special was supposed to be

out of so many we have

parents being the first of all

the bond we can neither share or break

promises that never cease to fail

become a part of our life and sail

they give us strength and support

make us happier and strong

but to let them go feels so wrong

I wish goodbyes were that easy

just wave a hand and share hugs

and nothing would ever hurt

but it's harder than we imagine

something that's crawling

deep inside there is a gain

yet something breaks and gives us pain

coz they are not just endings

but start to other beginnings

and a ray of hope that shines

will be framed as a chapter 

on our own book called - "Life"  

Today I am so upset and sad to see my dad leave for India after staying with us for almost 6 months. He has been my biggest strength and support towards the end of my pregnancy when I was irritated and all the times tired, he would massage my feet, talk to me and always put me to ease. He loves Nia so much and have been like a second - mom to her when I am not around or taking day naps, I cannot forget the moment I saw him in tears when he saw Nia for the first time and the biggest smile he had looking at me coming out of the operation theatre healthy and safe, and how proudly he hugged Yogish on becoming a father,  the shine in his eyes of being a grandfather was visible.

The biggest challenge for me is about to begin from today, along with my house chores, Nia , cooking I have to concentrate on my blog too. I really hope I am able to do it all with perfection, though I am still going to miss my papa a lot. I am the closest to him and I feel he understands me the best and is my best critic too, I can never be enough thankful to him for everything he has done for me since I was a little girl, and now I would want Nia to learn it all from him.

P.S - Daddy's Girl

Who are you much closer to ??
