Dad
Looking up to you with big, brown eyes
You were my hero.
Screaming at you when you said I couldn’t go,
You were my enemy.
Laughing when you made a joke,
You were my comedian.
Begging you to change you mind,
You were my challenge.
Thanking you when you trusted me,
You were my friend.
Leaving you as I prepare to go away,
You are my dad.
