Love - Untold But Understood Poem by muthu veerappan

Got a glimpse of your face,
even before i saw mine..
but why were you smiling when i was crying?
may be thats why still don't i feel free with you....

when you first kissed, i did say,
your whiskers pricked..
i think you kept in mind and
not kissing nowadays..
this also pricks... sorry dad...!

you held my hands for me to toddle..
but now i don't say i don't need it...
i need for company.. but not for guidance...

in all walks of life,
you either led or followed me..
but i wanted you beside..

all the walls you raised, sure,
were for my good..
but i would have been more happy,
if they were short enough to show me the world
and long enough to keep me within limits..

what i feel is, i ll take only your path..
but let me take it on my own feet,
and not on your back...

all these are,
my wishes and
not regrets...

for all you have done and been,
i wanna be your son and i mean it......
