Like every daughter does; I love my father thus

I wonder what you felt

when you held me for the first time

but the moment our eyes met

all I wished to say was "long time!"

I grew up in your shade

to become your own shadow

you let me wander in your corridor

and I saw the world through your window

Your words that found my ears;

I wore them like a crown

I pursued your foot steps

and now I'm the way you had walked on

I am the restless waves

finding solace on your shore

you being there like a radiant sun

there's nothing more I could wish for
