genetic pool

The Genetic pool 

I’m my father’s son, I carry his genes
He is a part of me that is inseparable
If I hate him, I dislike myself 
These days, I’m older than my father
He is my son, and I love my son 
Once I saw my father on the bus
He reached out to say hello
Misinformed, I ignored his gesture 
Looked out of the bus window 
I saw his tears 
Wish the moment would return 
It is my eternal shame
My father is my son, I think of him
Gently. 

The last poem in my new collection
