papa.........

something happened that made me realized today

papa has been holding it too long

he's always trying to make us happy

that he forgot about himself some times

he always kept quiet

giving us food and shelter

giving us love and peace

giving us everything we could ever wanted

all he ask from us is just simply...

make him proud.

i know i'm not always there for you lately.

im always out when you're around

and i'm always home when you're gone.

they told me that you walked for miles today

just to take out some cash because there's none on you

and the ATM was far away

but you didn't mind because you knew it's your job

and i wasn't there to help you

because i was selfish and spent time with my friends

i should've been there for you

i should be the one who walk the miles for you

i should be the one that's taking care of you

i'm so sorry for not being there

i regret staying out too long

i always wanted to make you proud papa

but eventually i think i've let you down

i cried today just to think of you

i wish there is something i could do

just to turn back time and make it better

but i know it's too late but there's tomorrow

i shall not let you down and i'll let you see

papa, i love you with all my heart

thank you for taking care of me all this while

now it's my turn to be the one

to take care of you and make you proud of me!
i love you papa!!!
