For you, my hero, my love, my dad!

[Simple Tania]

I remember when in your shoulders you carried me
I remember when holding hands you guided me
I remember when in your hug you comforted me
I remember when holding arms you delivered me

And all the kisses you gave me
And all the tears you've cleaned me
And all the words you told me
And even those that remained untold

I'll never forget all the smells of the morning
I'll never forget the stories told at the table
I'll never forget the knock when you arrived
I'll never forget your laughter on our tours

And also all the teachings you gave me
And also all the experiences you provided me
And also all the jokes you told me
And also all the reprimands I deserved

I memorized every wrinkle of your expression
I memorized the way your hand tightened on mine
I memorized the cheerful tone of your voice
I memorized the hazelnut colour of your deep eyes

And of course, these past few days...
All the hours spent by your side,
Everything that you were and that was disappearing
All the times I walked through those corridors,
The high hopes I had that vanished upon seeing you

The wrinkles were there, but not the expressions
Your hand tightened mine, but the touch wasn't the same
I heard your voice, but the cheerful tone wasn't there
The hazelnut colour remained, but they were deeply closed
And my tears fell down, but you couldn't cleaned them out! 

Rest in peace my hero, my love, my... DAD!!!!
