Can I Have My Dad Back?


Dear God,
My name is Sarah Adistia, and I live here on Earth, 
And as far as I’ve been told, whatever I want,
I should ask you first
I really don’t know much about you,
Only what I’ve heard grown up’s say, 
They say your something really magical
And whenever I’m sad, you’ll make it go away
“Well, if you can really hear me, there’s something I want to discuss
 But promise you won't tell my mommy, just keep it, between the two of us
I’ve been feeling a strange pain inside, almost every single day
It all started about a month ago, when my Daddy went away
They said that you took him far away, to a very special place 
They said I shouldn't cry or worry
Cause someday,
I’ll see my Daddy’s handsome face
I don’t care what they say, they don’t know what’s in my heart 
All I know is that my Daddy is gone, and it’s tearing me apart
Okay, let me take a deep breathe, and tell you what I want to say 
Just be a little patient with me,
I’m just learning how to pray
I want to make a deal with you, and I hope that I‘m not misunderstood
I want you to give my Daddy back to me, and I promise, to always be good
I know that sometimes I don’t listen and I can behave very bad, 
But I promise to stop now, if you let me see my Dad
I miss him so very much, I just don’t know what to do
I want to hug him, kiss him, play with him,
and wait for him after school 
What about when Eid Mubarak comes, who will buy my new skirt?
What about when I get to high school, who will keep me safe from bad boys?
If you can really hear me, can you help me?
Cause I don’t understand, how can my Daddy be here with me one day 
And the next, his life is in your hands?
Who told you that you can have him?
Did you ever think of me?
Did you ever think of Mommy, and how lonely, she would be?
I don’t mean to yell at you, or disrespect you, in any kind of way
I’m just feeling very hurt and angry, cause my Daddy's gone away!
What was that you said? I think I hear you speak
You say my Daddy is in a beautiful place, where only good people meet
You say that you’ll watch over him, as he watches over me
You say you’ll never leave him alone, and by his side, you’ll always be?
“Well”, if that’s the case, I guess it will be alright 
That Daddy spends some time with you, until we reunite
Although it’s still not clear to me, the reason why he’s gone
I feel a little better now, knowing that he is safe in your arms
“Ok”, it’s getting pretty late, and I want to go to sleep 
But there’s just one wish I want to make, and I pray you grant it just for me
I know that it’s impossible, you give me Daddy back, right now 
But could you make it summertime again,
when my Daddy was still around
Ameen..
