Dear Papa

I was not able to write poems for a long time now
And on this dawn my thoughts of you urge me to write one
Papa,  your princesses are weary, 
And your queen is becoming dire dreary

Papa, we should be celebrating your birthday on December
But how? You will be gone forever
At this moment we're all heavyhearted
Our hearts and our minds are too exhausted

How I wish all that's happening is just a nightmare
And tomorrow when I wake up you are still here
Papa, why all of a sudden?
We're not done with our dreams, it's not yet fulfilled

Papa,  what does it take to bring you back?
Papa,  I can't accept the fact.
Papa,  you are one of a kind
But now,  you're with God in paradise

Lord God, please send our regards to Papa
Tell him not to worry 'cause we will fight for Mama
We can't kiss and hug him today
Please do it for us every single day.
