A Young Man Between a Father and Daughter

A   young man between a father and  daughter
 
Today dawns with black tears
To show my forthcoming grief
The sky was dark with thunders
As her bursting words from mouth
Her every word points my heart as dagger and
Killed me though I am living
She was in love with him before her age of seventeen
He is my villain between me and her
Though he is not handsome
She is in love with him
She is still a child and innocent angel
She is in love with that man
Her plain and open smiles have gone
Her eyes are searching him in the air and river
He came between me and her and
Separated her from my vision
With an intolerable pain and tears
I give a word to her “yes”
