What I Do, I Do For You

Have I failed as a father? I asked myself. As You questioned, with anger in your eyes. And my heart is torn by your disregard, For all the sacrifices I've made in your life. You want to know what I've done for you? , What I've given, and why I've held back?, But you don't see the late nights I worked, Or the dreams I gave up to put you first. You accuse me of not saving for your future, Not working enough to give you what you want, But I know that sometimes less is more, And you are blind to all the blessings you've got. I couldn't give you everything you asked for, Because a parent must make tough choices too, And I may not have succeeded in all my efforts, But I hope that my love for you shines through. So don't judge me by what you see, Or by the things I didn't provide, Instead, appreciate the memories we've shared, And the love that always resides. 27/10/2023
