the bride
"dad, i want to get married!
i escaped that old town,
barricades and breakdown.
she has a tempting taste,
i don't find myself go to waste,
the light falls on window panes
she rolls the curtains sideways,
my home is filled with hope
she gives me all what i had lost,
i am grinning while texting her
she says I'm always doing better,
oh dad, see my brightened face
she is the place, she is the praise,
dad, i want to get married!! "
"i am happy for you, my son
if she is right with all her might.
the same girl who gifted you sight?
the same girl who took you to height?"
dad feels proud.
"she is best for me,
her smile gives rest to me."
"the same girl who planted the silver ferns?
the same girl for whom you used to yearn?
the same girl who turned your clocks?
the same girl who even melted your rocks?"
dad frowns.
"but she is not the bride!!! "
