To a Black Father
Never thought of the day I’ll see emotions.
It’s as if I’m a superhero flying over the ocean.
You personify love, strength, power, and wisdom.
For when I look at you, Christ looks back,
Sometimes...
And the love you share is really one of a kind.
If I could go back, I’ll do it all over again just to experience your love once more,
For you made me a man.
And even though I don’t call you daddy no more,
You protect me like a lion, with just a roar.
You guide my soul.
And like the moon that guides the waves,
I roll.
“Your presence is the present. ”
