Behind The Curtain – Sadia Bintay Rouf : 3rd Place Winner

“Father” doesn’t mean only a word,
It would be the strongest sword if it could.
Every letter of this word
Mean a lot to me,
The person is more affluent by heart
Than from outside we see.
His words of inspiration
Lead me towards success,
The lifestyle he owns and lives is-
Like a mesmerizing map to impress.
Childhood forced me
To be unable for a single day without him,
But when I faced so
Feelings took me to a river full to the brim.
Being now his adult daughter
I’ve combined respect with love,
But his love not a point percentage
Have detached from as it was.
Still that day peeps my heart
When I got achivement and praises
But as I was to inform him
My tears crossed the boundary of eyes.
His whispers of love
Will never fade,
And he being the crown of my glory
I would like to be his shade.
None and nothing will be able
To make his width of love compressed,
Just like my father’s presence
Behind the curtain of my success.
