I Love My Dad

I know I scare you sometimes

But you don't have to worry

I have your strength

And your will

I also have your deep heart

Some days the heart is what troubles me

Although I remember what you told me

You can't save the world

Among all the other things you've said

That's the reason I turn to you

When I feel sad

Or if I'm sick or "punky" as you always said

You're the first person I want to call

The first person I want a hug from

You'll never have to worry about me

Because I appreciate every breath I take

And I'm so thankful for all the love in my life

I don't think I could've prayed, wished, or hoped for a better father

I just hope I'm as good of a person as you when I'm older

I love you
