I smile when I reminisce about the man, in whose arms, I grew

I smile even when my heart is aching with pain
Coz that’s the pillar that holds me
And an upbringing you’ve given me
You weren’t just a friend or a dad
But the iconic person my life ever had
Even if I lost a friend, mentor, and hero in you, my old man
You taught me that even the worst can be part of God’s great plan
So I smile
