And His Name Was Father
Location
There was a bright man once who taught me everything he knew, He would tell me “Jasmine I can teach you everything I know but the decisions you choose to make are up to you.” I’ve lived with this man since I was two and thought of him each time I didn’t know what to do. He would hold my hand when I would stumble upon a crack and tell me each time… mistakes are made but you must never look back. He would protect me from anything in this cold world, He will protect me from anything for I am his little baby girl. A lot of times I would believe you were just telling me what to do, until every little thing you said started to come true. I remember the times when you would iron our clothes and take us to school, tell us you love us and we would say “we love you too”. I remember those times when you would take us to the park, I remember when you would call us in your room after you would fart. I remember hearing you will grow up fast! Not believing this was true I would go get mad, now in two years I’ll be grown and I’m sure you’ll be glad. You would guide me on the paths of wrongs and rights and tell me exactly what path to take, so many people has thrown stones at you but I have yet to see you break… And his name was father and, no he wasn’t perfect but was the first person by my side if ever someone would hurt me. Yes it was my father who showed me I can when I would believe I can’t… Yes Jon is my father… and the true definition of a man…
