In Memoralia: A Tribute To My Father Poem by Mahfooz Ali

Why did you leave this world so early?
You still had great things to do in your life.
I know that your pain is gone,
but I just want you back.
I want to be able to talk to you again,
to hug you,
to tell you my problems
and just be with you.

You were the best dad in the world.
You never did anything wrong,
you used to bring me to home,
you would bring me the fame.
You was the greatest.

Everybody loved you.
You touched the lives of everybody that you met.

When you left, so suddenly,
it was a shock to all of us.
Even though I knew that your time was soon,
it didn't feel like you should have been gone.
To me,
you still belong here,
with us,
with me.
