Dad's heavy arm around
My neck, lovingly...
This has been
The third time...
I'm failing at bonding
with a child...
There's nothing easy
about relationships but...
You are only a month old
so you wont understand right now...
You came home that day
With three little baskets...
Months of waiting, feeling u inside.... My bundle...
In life, I can bear more bother
But I can't see my saddest father...
Happy birthday little one
Though you ain't so little now...
I can hear you when you wake up in the morning...
I can hear you call my name...
“Nanay, can you see me?”
You gave me a gentle nod...
Seeing you
In this state...
