I wish I could’ve been there for you I wish I could’ve stood up for you when he put you down I wish I could’ve put my foot down when he raised his hand at you I wish I understood how difficult it must’ve been to raise two kids with a monster I wish you had the vocabulary to articulate how you feel I wish the Indian society wouldn’t judge a single mother I wish I never gave you a hard time when I was growing up Although I look like him I promise I won’t be like him I will respect my wife and never lay a hand on her I will listen to my wife and never undermine her I will be responsible with my money and never put my family in bad situations But most importantly I will be a great husband and father because we never had one
