My Lion-Like Daddy!

Fabruary 15th, 2018

Abdulkadr…

Like every child going on this journey, he was thinking that this was a game with his parents. They would win if they never give up, even if they get too much tired…

They had their big strong father; no one never can do anything to them. Father means trust, father means confidence.

This is a game of bad cops and uncharging robbers.

Although how hard the journey is, mother and father tries to calm their child by giving a shape of a game to the journey.

And what happened in the end?

Some walked to the eternity through the rivers…

Their sons looked at their mothers and asked ‘’Daddy will win right mommy?’’ innocently. Children awaited for their fathers for 70 days. Mothers soothed themselves by believing they are still alive. They don’t want to be rescued from the bottomless pit they have fallen with the father’s news; he was dead.

Some of them lost in the cold water of the river. The game, is over. And we got quite happy for them being dead. Mother and two children are dead, how could the father would live with this truth? We got quite happy with the truth of father’s death.

We witnessed to the witnessing of the whole family.

Some of them, separated from their children, threatened by their beloved ones. Children sent photographs to their fathers with messages ‘to my dearest daddy’. Hankerings messed up with hatreds. Minds stuck in the past.

Some fathers, died in their children’s arms because of the very hard torture.

Some fathers, trembled like a leaf everyday with the fear of hearing bad news from their children with cancer.

Some fathers, had disabled children. Couldn’t see them more than a year.

Fathers, pressed their hearts with rocks. Stones would be too light.

Fathers, mothers, and their children.

They have lived everything, including the things they should never had lived!

Oh night! I wish I could walk with the wind behind me as you get darken as you could…

I live with the hope of one last drop, and the end.

My eyes burn. My heart is about to breakdown…

I look forward for the fortune to come up.
