Dad,
even I could know
what a choice made
out to be,
you knew my choice
and made it mine.

When I could know
what a choice made
out to be,
You understood the choice
and wished it mine.
But,
You retreated,
Only when I asked
the choice of my life,
you held me from
reaching my choice,
you said,
‘for this time I
shall make your choice’.
