To my father...

By: Norah

The last thing I ever wanted...
was to see your ever-existent smile fade.
Your strong demeanor with the softest undertones
made me want to be exactly like you when I grew up.
Through all the atrocious things I made you endure,
you always took a moment to calm the waters.
You brought me here and guided me through every change
needed to see myself as I really was,
Someone who has a chance to save the world.
And for that Dad, I Love You...
