being a father means that i am responsible for the future of this world,
teaching my daughter her role in the awakening.
being daddy means that i will always be regarded highly,
and i find that i must never give reason for other.
being a dad means that i must remain calm in the most tense of situations,
so that my daughter can be comfortable at those times.
being a father means that i, only now, know what it means to love,
with everything that i am, and will ever become.
it means that i am responsible for keeping her as innocent as i can,
while teaching her what strength really means.
being dad means i will never be first in my thoughts,
and will trade pride in self for pride in her.
it means that i will forever be in love,
and will always be loved back.

innocence lasts only so long (although I can't imagine the little one not being so)
ReplyDeleteand there will be a day or two where you won't be loved back (at least for a little bit)
