may be

He held my hand, may be,

when i missed my step

He took me in his arms, may be,

when i wept

He comforted me,may be

when i worked myself up

He scolded me, may be

when i goofed up

He made me maggi, may be

when he had to cook

He cracked jokes, may be

he could write a book

He kept looking out of the window

trying to breathe, may be

decades passed, he stood there, gazing

trying to think, may be

Watch yourself inside,

world can give you clues, may be

to be a man, shed your pride

you'll get to where you want, may be
