Pa! I can't say that I hate you,
But I don't think you've done a lot of good things,
So that I could say that I really love you.
Pa! maybe I respect you,
If someone says something bad about you,
I don't feel good.
Can do anything to safeguard your reputation.
Now my question is to you,
Have you thought of doing the same for me and mum?
Pa! people say I'm lucky that I've got a father.
Then why I feel bad,
To see my friends with there dad?
Why I don't feel safe to visit somewhere with you?
Why I feel lone in your presence?
Pa! thanks for all the things you've done for me.
Thanks for providing me good education.
Thanks for giving me clothes to cover my body.
Thanks for feeding my stomach every day with tasty meals.
Hope you could understand what I want.
-J.B.
