I wish I could tell you…

I wish I could tell you that I have dated men;
I wish I could tell you I used to cry because of that men often,
I wish I could tell you whom I want to get married;
I wish I could tell you about the chit for copying in the exam that I have carried,
I wish I could  tell you when I went into depression because of a friend;
I wish I could tell you when I wanted to wear capris when they started to trend,
I wish I could tell you that I drink occasionally;
I wish I could tell you that even at home sometimes I feel lonely,
I wish I could tell you when I craved for freedom;
I wish I could tell you that I want your support when I needed some,
Dear papa, this gap existed because you never understood;
And the result of this gap can never fall out good.

  1. Beautiful… So raw and full of emotion… It captures how any typical girl of today feels like… Bcuz we are in the middle of the technological era and the beautiful laid-back golden ages… And our parents are as well; only they don’t have the flexibility to adapt to them…

  2. My father isn’t alive anymore. I wish he were because there are things I could tell him now – things couldn’t tell my mother, either, when I was younger because she was still too much “the parent”. In middle age I could finally tell her all these things because I found out she was human, too, and made mistakes. We could talk about “almost” all of the things we hid.
