I Miss You

I called you just now.
Didn't know where I should start from,
So I asked if you were already asleep,
Though I knew the answer.

I know,
I am not good with expressing myself.
It has always been like this with you,
Please forgive me.

It has been,
150 days,
Since we dined together,
And I last saw you smile.

"How have you been?".
You paused,
It has been a while,
Since I asked you this.

You said you are well,
And everything is going smoothly.
Sometimes I know you lie,
So as not to keep me worried.

You asked the same question,
Each time I called you.
"Have you eaten yet?".
"Please take care of your weak body".

Like me,
You are bad in expressions,
I bet that is why,
We are together.

You told me loads of stuffs,
While I just listened.
Your voice is so comfortable,
To be heard.

As you were talking,
I heard a sobbing tone over the phone.
I wish I were there,
To wipe away your tears.

It is so contagious,
My eyes became teary,
My cheeks soon turned wet,
It just happened like that.

In another 127 days,
I wish it is shorter.
I will be back soon,
Back to be with you.

I want to tell you,
How much I love you.
I miss you,
My beloved daddy. x <3


Your little kid,
V
