"You."
He said to his child of two summers.
"You are not mine, even if you were part of me.
You are not a trophy, i can polish and show my pride through
You are not a puppet i control to do as I believe,
nor shall you be a puppet to others."
a tear flowed down his right cheek,
"I... I am but a teacher for your path.
I am but a receiver of the universe's creation.
I am but a lucky man to see such creation exist,
and grow."
his body felt warm and shaky
"You have no debt for me,
for I am blessed to have you,
You are the one that showed me the most valuable of experiences,
the highest of joys, watching a smile on a pure and beautiful soul.
I am forever in debt, and will always repay you."
the sun rays, through the patched window, shimmered his tears of happiness
"I am forever in debt, for you are my only claim to glory."
