Daddy's girl

top and pants: ZARA, belt : Gap

I love the rain

Yea, am not one of those people who complain when it's raining

I actually enjoy it

kinda romantic

and besides we need water

Today's my dad's death anniversary

Visited him

What's interesting about heaven and earth

is that no matter how diverse both seem

and how spiritual the relationship is

You really feel the ubiquitous presence

of the one you love

I talked to my dad and filled him in on things

Was always a daddy's girl

I got a lot of my qualities from him

My being organized and neat?

He's even more organized and neat

Compassionate, caring, supportive

Super intelligent

I remember we would watch Quiz Bee as a kid

and he would compute the answers mentally

He was exceptionally good in Math

He's the type that my teacher is wrong and he's correct

to which my teacher after I cite my dad's correction

will retract her initial answer

I even had purple clips before

that had "Daddy's girl" engraved on it

In my world

I would only describe my dad

in the superlative degree

So as poetic as it seemed

I had one on one talk with him

lighting the candle while balancing the umbrella

Rain on the burning candle

Amazing how it still burns through the rain

Talked to my Mom

when I got home in the evening

and she said my candle burned to the last wick

And I thought

Even with the rain

Nothing can stop the light

my Dad gives

What can I say, I am still a Daddy's girl
