Dear Father

In the shadow of the war, she grew With every day, her worries grew too Her dad's out there, fighting for what's right But at night, she's left alone with her plight She dreams of him, a hero strong and true Wishing he'd come back, like he used to do But in her heart, she knows he's fighting still For a world where love can triumph over ill Oh, father, father, where are you now? Your little girl is lost, she's wondering how To navigate this world, so dark and gray But in her heart, your love will always stay As she falls for her first love's embrace She sees her dad's reflection in his face She wonders what he'd say if he were near Would he approve or fill her heart with fear? In her mind, she hears his voice so clear Guiding her through love, dispelling all her fear He'd say, "My darling, love with all your might But keep our family's love in sight" Oh, father, father, you're never far away Your wisdom guides her through each passing day In the midst of chaos, she finds her way For in your love, she'll always stay Through the trials and the strife She'll carry on, embracing life With the love you taught her, she'll endure For family's love is ever pure Oh, father, father, though you're far from sight Your love illuminates her darkest night With every step, she feels your guiding hand For family love is where she'll always stand In a world torn by war and hate It's family love that conquers fate So let us cherish those we hold dear For in their love, there's nothing to fear.
