The Fighter

You fought for me when I was a babe

Asking what where my chances

Never taking no for an answer

You fought on when I was four or five

To have my intelligence to be recognised

You must have sat back in

Quiet victory

Confident in your ability to see

Hope where others couldn’t

But you did not rest

You push me on through primary

And after secondary school.

I didn’t realize why you pushing me

But now I know 20 years late you where trying to help me

Reach my potential .

Thank you Dad

Thank you father for being in my corner

Now I will be what you were for me

Fighter to help you get everything you need

To help you  achieve what  you want to achieve.
