Waking up in the morning the days you aren’t here
A tear slides downs my cheek and I wipe it clear
The soothing sound of air from your lungs
Can calm my spirit and the man that I’ve become
The simple smile you give when you awake
Illuminates my soul and takes the cake
You call me Poppa, Daddy because I am
I’ll never regret the responsibility at hand
To raise you and bathe you and teach you
Everything from the ABC’s to thank you
I want to take this time to bless my favor
And acknowledge to you that you are my savior
You gave me life when I gave you life
I’ll never regret the fact that I entered your life
It took me awhile to man up to the passage
I’m glad that I did you’ve become my passion because

I’m a man and I cry from happiness
The fact she blessed me with this holy bliss
Sometimes it’s hard to think I made you
Something so beautiful from this worthless fool
I stand tall and smile when you laugh out loud
Because inside I blush you make daddy proud
I’ll try my best not to let you frown
And hope in the future I never let you down
I can’t explain, how sorry I am
That your home is broke for your life span
Just know your heart and home is where the love is
And regardless of your mother and I know this
We love you more then words can ever say
We’ll never stop showing you until our dying day
Until then I look forward to life’s adventure
With you by my side a cohesive mixture because

I want to teach and learn from each others actions
What life’s really about in all factions
The fact you grow so much everyday now
I can’t imagine what to expect and how?
But I’m excited and I wish for the best
While I reminisce of you sleeping on my chest
You went from walking to talking so quick
That I know I’m going to enjoy this life trip
So take this as my pledge to you my baby
I give you my heart and dedication crazy
Maybe in the future, when you lay me down
The love I gave you will even still stop the frown
And when you look up above and wonder where I’m at
You can feel my presence like I never left
So with this I say thanks for things you don’t know
In time you’ll understand when you grow because
