Unexpected Phone Call
What do you say after eleven years?
What can you possible say to someone
who you’ve held so dear?
Hello?
I don’t recognize his voice
I can’t even picture his face,
he seems so far away in my memory.
Start a new relationship between father and daughter,
or this is a dangerous zone to cross over.
I just don’t know…
and yet I feel excitement and calmness within me.
Maybe this is a mistake to get too close…
Maybe this is the last good-bye between us…
This is a great opportunity I have to tell him what I think
or maybe this is the time to forgive and to forget.
