I love you so much papa

Today I lost a piece of my soul, 
And it is irreparable. 
Bereft of your pain, I am happy for you
But now I don't have my best friend anymore. 
You were the one who not only leaded me, 
but also held my hand and walked beside me. 
You were a person who's love was like a giant tree, 
in the midst of a dreary, damp forest; 
A little love blowed to thee 
could fire up your metabolism and then, 
You spread love and laughter as proliferating as a tornado. 
You are my best friend, 
and I know I was yours,
we shared a connection that was beautiful and lovely and wonderful and, real. 
I talk to you from my heart and, 
they are anything but missed calls. 
You never missed a message from me, 
And I hope you always call me. 
That evening you told me it was okay to cry, 
But important to be the strong pillar
of a naive mother. 
I miss you already because you were the one who could tap the inner me, 
and instil that drive, that motivation
And I feel alone because I have lose my best friend.

"baby, fight.." mother rhino cried.

So the baby rhino said to her mother,
“mother look! My horn is getting bigger and stronger!
I will wait for the day it will be as magnificent as yours!”
“Yes, my daughter, I hope it will be stronger and finer,
The best of them all”
So she waited and waited,
For her horn to get better,
She and her mother separated.
One day they met, mother's eyes were wet.
Baby rhino gasped, “mother, you're bleeding, where is your horn?!”
Mother cried and with pain in her eyes, said
“Humans are coming, your friends were killed after being poached, merely out of vengeance.
Humans are coming, run, it has hurt me a lot,
These are your mother's last words, my dear,
Run, run far away, and never get caught”.
The baby rhino, now all big, with a magnificent horn of her own,
Lived in fear, fear of losing her horn,
But a greater fear of letting her own daughter see her the way
She saw her mother dehorned and in pain.
She encountered human horn traders, poached,
Her horn fell off with now a bloody mass of brain.
She said the same words to her daughter,
that her mother had said to her.
Saw her daughter panic in fear,
Closed her eyes and slipped a tear.
