padre

we were never poor
from your providing

we were never rich
from a lack of guiding

you were always trying
to keep us safe

and even though we
never mentioned
the strength of
your ways

we knew we
could leaned on
the comfort of
your always

thank you
for helping
thank you
for warming

thank you for healing
thank you for calling

thank you for trying
to understand
what we are

you are more constant
than the north star

forever guiding
forever ours

(love)
