My Father

 

 

 

 

My father wasn't there to show me anything

he never watched me play, he never heard me sing

he would send birthday money, it was always late

just another thing I remember to this date

he would give us Christmas presents someone else bought

that just showed me how little of us he thought

he never seemed to care one way or the other

about me, my sister or my brother

at least that is how I felt growing up through the years

he didn't care about my hopes, he didn't care about me fears

and he wasn't there to wipe away my tears

he didn't chase away the bad boys, we never even really talked

I wasn't even 3 years old when out of my life he walked

when I got older I would visit him now and again

we would have casual conversations then

when I found out he was dying

we had our casual words the way we usually did

It was the most I got from him

ever since I was a kid

the last thing I said was "I love you" and he said the same

and with those words I released all the blame

I am grateful these were our last words to each other

I wouldn't want it any other way

that is the one thing I hold above the others

and cherish to this day.

Rest in Peace, Dad.

I've had a hard life, but my hardships are nothing against the hardships that my father went through in order to get me to where I started.

What Is A Dad?

 

A dad is someone who

wants to catch you before you fall

but instead picks you up,

brushes you off,

and lets you try again.

A dad is someone who

wants to keep you from making mistakes

but instead lets you find your own way,

even though his heart breaks in silence

when you get hurt.

A dad is someone who

holds you when you cry,

scolds you when you break the rules,

shines with pride when you succeed,

and has faith in you even when you fail... ;)
