Thinking of you on this special day

Thinking if I ever said happy birthday
Thinking if I ever said that I love you
Thinking if I ever said you were a great father
Thinking if I ever said how much you meant to me

Thinking if I ever said how much I appreciated you being there for us
Thinking if I ever said I felt your pain after amma left
Thinking if I ever spoke about your pain
Thinking if I ever said that you were my hero

Thinking if I ever asked what your happiness was
Thinking if I ever asked what you wanted me to be
Thinking if I ever asked about your thoughts
Thinking if I ever said thank you

Thinking what made you happy
Thinking what made you sad
Thinking what made you smile
Thinking what made you angry

Thinking if I was a good daughter
Thinking if I ever disappointed you
Thinking if I ever made you upset
Thinking if I ever hurt your feelings

Thinking of all these on this day…
Truth is nothing comes to mind
Thinking that if I took you for granted
Thinking that I should have said those

Thinking of you on this special day and wherever you are, I want you to know that I miss you every day and you were the best father anyone could ask for!

Happy birthday Appa!
