As I walk towards the aisle,

I struggle to keep my tears held back, as I'm a little fragile.

My dad is beside me, a bit nervous and smiling ,

and I could imagine my mom standing near the aisle and crying.

I'm happy and little nervous and I held on to my dad, 
as I was a bit afraid and it was a bit too obvious.

My dad is ill and he stumbled ,so I gently lift his arm and put it on my shoulders.

Seeing me afraid he patted on my head and jokingly said "I have got my lucky tie on , u need not be so afraid".

His words made me laugh when I couldn't even smile,

It just reminded me that my dad's sense of humor was always on time.

"I wish your mother was alive and here, she is good with words and would had put away your fears" he said.

It did feel bad and empty that my mom wasn't really here.

So as I smile at him , I say "There wouldn't be anyone else, I would want to be with at this hour at this day."

"But I don't know what am I suppose to say to you........I'm sure you have made a great choice and no matter what , I'm always there for you."
Those words of his made me cry.

Do I need to leave even my dad behind ? but why ?

The aisle is just few steps away ,

I fold the last letter which my dad had given to me before he had passed away.

I just look beside me after reading his letter but he wasn't there,
all I have is his words on a paper which he had left for me for this day.
I look around the aisle trying to find my mom , but she too wasn't there.

Tears wouldn't stop rolling down as I realized ,I was alone on this important day.

So I just held tightly on my dad's letter, for his words made me feel that he was actually here.

As I walk down those last few steps towards the aisle ,
I failed to keep my tears held back , as I'm a little fragile.
