Through your Father’s eyes


You come into the world, confused and bewildered.
Your father holds you up for the first time.
You grow to learn the good from the bad.
Growing and learning, he sees you.

As a young child he teaches you the ways of the world,
The differences, the conflicts, how refrigerators work.
He teaches, you learn
Growing and learning, he sees you.

Life goes on and you realize that your relationship
with your father is not how it was.
But he still watches over you.
Growing and learning, he sees you.

You grow to be a young man and move far away from him.
You think life is good now that you’re free.
But occasionally you feel incomplete.
Growing and learning, he still sees you.

He will always be with you,
Because if he did it right
Some of him will be in you

Growing and learning, he will always see you through his eyes.
