Daddy

Taremwa Madelyne

Sweet but sour
Angry but happy
Mixed feelings all over the place
The feeling of my daddy getting old

My only superhero
The one man who can raid an army for me
My shock absorber
My refuge
Oh daddy
How can I ever thank you enough?

I can’t imagine a mile in your shoes
You maintaining your Steeze amidst all challenges
How could I not appreciate you for trying so hard
No one to rely on yet you never broke in front of me
How stupid of me to think that you never did enough for me.
Oh daddy
How can I ever thank you enough?

Slept hungry so I could eat
Got naked so I could be clothed
Was broke so I could appear rich
Sold everything so I could go to school
Oh daddy
How can I thank you enough?

Now I look back
And see how ungrateful I have been
Years are running by and you are growing old fast daddy
The feeling kills me because I can’t put a smile on your face daddy
At least I could have been close to you to watch you grow and make new memories with you but I have to make sure that I make it daddy
It kills me that with every passing day I realize that I didn’t give us a chance daddy
How I wish I could make it in life and make you the happiest dad on earth daddy
Ohh daddy
How can I thank you enough?

My mind fails me
My body ashames me
Each day I realise how much of a best dad you have been
I could freeze the time
I could run miles
Just to make sure I put a smile on your face daddy

Though I can’t give you any thing right now
Though you haven’t seen the fruits of your labor
My heart is always with you
My heart beats along with you
And every moment I know that you are fine means everything to me
I know one day I will make you proud
And just wanted you to know that you are my angel

OH DADDY
YOU ARE MY SUPERHERO
