Hero

I have a hero, yes its true,
He sometimes knows me better then I do.
He's had a rough life, I would know,
He basically raised me and it shows.
I helped his OCD plus we traveled alot,
Its my dad, the best friend I got.
I've heard stories about his past,
and hearing them sure was a blast.
I always learned something new,
If I needed advice,
He'd be the one that I could turn to.
He's been there through thick and thin,
and even protected me from trouble I was in.
Though life is short, Don't you know?
He'll always be in my heart and soul.
I have a hero, yes it's true,
It's my dad, my best friend too.
