Father are you there

Dad, we have a love that is unbreakable.
We have a foundation that is unshakeable.

Without a doubt, I can look into your eyes
And know that you accept me. A tear that dries

All on its own because you can wipe them away.
You have a joke and laugh that will never stray.

Words of wisdom you share. Courage I have not
Seen anywhere else before. You never forgot

Where you come from. I am extremely proud
To be your daughter, the sun within every cloud

And in your mirror. I am smiling right back at you
Because I know that you are always the one to

Light up my world within a world that can be
Dark and uninviting. You taught me to see

The upside in every downside with peace and
Strength within. You always hold my hand.
