You Are Not The World's Best Dad

(Image from ablemuse.com)

You are not the world’s best dad
There were times I wished you dead
I forget the reason why I felt that way
You were not the world’s best dad

Freud believed that a father is a godlike figure
in everyone’s mind
I don’t know about that,
but you sure did act like your were God at times

No father, no son, no daughter
Where is mother in all of this?
In the kitchen cooking,
In the toilet cleaning

Loving you is not easy
It should be but not
Today is your special day
Mother has hers too

Who wins out in father-mother contest?
Counting the number of mother’s boys
And father’s girls
Mother should win by a landslide

It’s not the easiest thing in the world to say:
I love you, father
You are a creature of darkness and light
Can’t live without one or the other

Congratulations, you have done enough to pass
The paternal test of love and hate
Happy Father’s Day, dad
Someday you will die, but today you live.

    ...is it possible to say, "like father, unlike son?"
    ...i don't want to be my father...
    ...i am not my father...
    ...i want to be a better father to my son...

    Happy Father's Day to you bai!!! May the Almighty give us grace and wisdom as we strive to be the best fathers we can be.
