Resolution Hynm

>Me, My own hostage The dreams from my father In volumes and effect The lessons from my cradle With cognitive and psycho-motor tags Ingrained in my mind Indelible from my heart Indeed a pride to reap there in Bearing my names Beaming with wisdom My beacon of hope So I stand to admit my papa You are one in a million Your words, my command Your actions, my path Your advice, my solutions Your legacy, my challenge Your efforts, my strength Your triumphs, my pride Your dreams, my mission That I will forever keep Keep to measure up Up to your level of achievement That even in my wildest dreams In solitude, in multitude You will be my guiding star The knight in shining armor That I will never be, my own hostage>

Hassan, nice to meet you. I have to tell you that this piece had me at the edge of my seat. I felt the uprising in each & every line. The final line in this piece made me smile intensely. "That I will never be, my own hostage". YES! That's how one eliminates their demons. Thank you so much for presenting this poem to my contest. I may have read this differently than others, but damn this piece hit hard.
