To my father, the strongest man I know.

Story
2019 – 2022


This stubborn man

Does not want any help

Broadly known

That he is in pain

One sleepless night

Followed by the next

Where are you going

Stubborn men?



This great man

Does not want to need any help

Lifting the weights of life

One too many times

Just know that we are here

To take some of those weights

How much can you lift great man

Before breaking down for good?

Just know that we are here

I love you dad


My father is my biggest idol and my childhood hero. It took me a couple of years to notice that he too had flaws. He always does things on his own even if the whole family is around. Even driving himself to the hospital because my siblings and I are still asleep. He tought me everything I know about social interactions, and he is the reason I get along with everyone so easily.

I am proud to be your son.
