MY HERO

MY HERO

A Poem by afra

The person who will fight the world for me 
The person who means everything to me
The man who always there to wipe my tears 
The man who always fights away my fears 

The angel who showed me how to love 
The angel who protected me when I was weak as a dove 
The guy who spent his teenage life working for me 
The guy who lives in hell just to give me a happy family 

The hero who burns himself just to give me light 
The hero who always shows me the right 
The dad without him I don't know where I would be
The dad who's little girl I am proud to be

Again, with so many reviews on the shelf there's probably little I can add. And if someone else already mentioned what I'm about to say, forgive me and move on. One question on the content or story line. In the middle verse you mention the "guy who spends his teenage life". Was this still referring to your dad? Also, the third line you could say 'The man who will always wipe my tears'. The next-to-last line instead of "The dad without him" you might say 'The dad without whom'. Your poem is wonderful as is. I'm just trying to offer something. I don't think it's right to just mouth repetitious praise like a rubber stamp on everyone's work. My honest opinion I will always give, only after I've actually read a piece several times and given it careful thought.

I agree with the "whom"
Also I am assuming that your dad was young when you were born; hence, .. read more

I really HATE to say I told you so Afra but I TOLD YOU SO!!! Once again you let your mind off the leash and went absolutely wild on this poem!!! And I mean wild in a GREAT way...An amazingly described, awesomely rhymed, and emotionally charged way...NOT the wild "Oh you misspelled this or you misspelled that type of way" Last time I checked this was a place to express your feelings through writing...Not a spelling Bee...Sow u lett ur mined of tha leashe agane annd LoL I'll stop...You unleashed a ravaging, snarling, biting, beast of a poem...This is why it is so terrific...Keep it up Afra..

thank you so much ...=D
"The man who aways" should be 'always'
"The angel who proteced" should be 'protected'
"The guy who spend" needs to be 'spent' or 'spends'

Such a sweet poem. He must be so proud of you. :)
