Me, My own hostage The dreams from my father In volumes and effect The lessons from my cradle With cognitive and ******-motor tags Ingrained in my mind Indelible from my heart Indeed a pride to reap there in Bearing my names Beaming with wisdom My beacon of hope So I stand to admit my papa You are one in a million Your words, my command Your actions, my path Your advice, my solutions Your legacy, my challenge Your efforts, my strength Your triumphs, my pride Your dreams, my mission That I will forever keep Keep to measure up Up to your level of achievement That even in my wildest dreams In solitude, in multitude You will be my guiding star The knight in shining armor That I will never be, my own hostage
