Vividly I remember when I was just a child,
Crying into you’re arms, Every time I fall down.
How you tried to make me smile,
Then hug me tight.

As I grow up, Days pass and goes,
Looking back to yesterday when you’re not still old,
I want to be wrapped in your arms when I feel cold.

You provided me what I want,
Have patience on my demands though I know its more than enough,
Still you gave much more than that.

I guess I Haven’t say thank you,
For the comfort, for the care,
for, forgiving me when I’m so unfair…

Do you still remember when I dreamt of you?
I was so afraid to close my eyes,
For it wasn’t a dream but a nightmare…

His taking you away,
I ran so fast so perhaps I can hold you back,
I even ask you to stay but I guess you didn’t hear me say,
Instead you wave your hand,
From then on I break down.

I heard your voice calling out my name,
My eyes slowly opened and there you are in front of me,
You stand still and make no move,
Until I un wrapped my arms on you.

Every tears that fall was a fear for sure!
I might loose you after all,
How I wanted you to know that I love you,
I wanted to say thank you,
For the rest of My life.

I never wanted to hurt you so bad,
Please forgive me and don’t get mad,
For I’m just your daughter,
That fails you all the time.
