Memories slowly fade gradually
Missing you seems less frequently
12 years is a cycle apparently
You've been gone for that long already
Hope you're up there living peacefully
Happy Birthday dearest Daddy

If only life could have been plain simple
But because of self ideals and principles
Clouded thoughts and minds of people
Even stories tell of poisoned apples
Disasters and tragedies started with a couple
Will eventually multiply in quadruples

Ask direct one won't deny
Rumors only let imaginations fly
Just don't understand why
Trivial matters can shoot to the sky

Fate just pushes the button called Start
Each moment after plays an important part
Sometimes an accidental flying dart
Could just send things falling apart
Time and again we realize it's not smart
That it ain't wise to keep things in the cart
Lets go back right from the very start
To the very beginning called the Heart

A greatest test and challenge indeed
For the sake of health which will need
To abstain alcohol one has to heed
For the poison and toxins to be freed
Which flows through the body and bleed
A new lifestyle that has to breed
True friends who support will be in deed
As this beginning phase starts from a seed

Created by our own foolish unjust
Bits and pieces turned into dust
Blown away by a strong gust
Is it possible to earn back trust

Brain juices feeling a drought
Lost in time without a thought
From then till now what we have sought
Leaving behind what cannot be bought
