Letter to Dad

Letter to Dad
By: Steven

Calculated hate is all I ever had
Now I realize you are my dad
Blood and genes is all you gave me
But my heart belongs to a different tree
I’m a smith at heart they have me bound
I’m in a family so tightly wound
Grandpa raised me grandpa’s love
Kept me going when you went above
He is my dad he is my heart
When he is gone it will tear me apart
Not even close to how I felt
When I was told the cards you were dealt
My poker face can never hide
The pain I will always feel inside
When he is gone and I’m alone
To take over the family to sit in his throne
My feet will never be as large
As that big ol' bear we have in charge
Filling his shoes will be no easy task
Wearing his crown instead of my mask
But I’m up for the challenge I’ll do my best
He has prepared me well for this final test
