my father


My father

My best mentor, and best friend

taught me everything he knew and made me

not like him

but better

I owe him everything but i just can't seem to give him

more than enough to thank him.

 

He taught me manners,

how to be a gentleman

how to play sports

how to make myself better

how to be myself

but most importantly,

he taught me to find who I was

and without him

frankly,

I wouldn't be who i was without

My father.
