The Man I Can Not Recall

I saw you in everyman's face
Singers , players, actors, even cartoon!!
I thought I'd meet you soon
I couldn't estimate my loss
Till I passed the edge of time
Living a whole lifetime
Without you around
Without a deep passion to found

*Life is cruel to a little girl*

I kept dreaming about you for long
Praying to meet you somewhere.

I recall..
Seeing any man,"could it be him?"
I was told "You will meet him girl"
"Just don't be scared!"
I thought it was silly to say so
Because I wasn't , an' I need't to

I still see the funeral in my head
Tears were every where
Aunts , cousins , granny
Everybody was cryin'
But me..
Not that I didn't want to mourn
Not that I didn't love you at all
Simply I did't know what was going on
How innocent that can be?
I knew nothing about life's reality

An' youknow..
Reality is so harsh
To know how much you lost
It's not about money
You gambled with, once
Not about buying a house
You didn't like.
It is about a human soul,
An' a man I can't recall,
He is supposed to be a father.

After all...
To a five years old girl
Every man was her dad.
I know it sounds so sad.
