Father Like Daughter

Your eyes spoke directly to my heart,
Changing shape.
Worry that splattered across your face,
waned when you realized
I’m alive
I’m o.k.

My eyes,
so much like yours,
recognize a familiar gaze.
Worry, love and transformation evident
as the sun will rise.

Father like daughter,
We’re so much more similar than we thought.

Dad, thank you for visiting.
I love you so much.
I’ll never let this take over.

It’s funny how we don’t really see the similarities and resemblance to our parents until we get older. And we still need their love and support too.
