Though we Hardly Knew Each Other

Though we hardly knew each other,
Although I never knew him well,
Even though we barely chatted
I'm sure he had a lot to tell.
There were those days when we argued,
Times I refused to look at him,
Weeks when we acted like strangers,
Hours when I fell as his victim
But I know that within his soul,
Inside him laid a tender heart.
He bore that love all fathers have,
That love which never did depart.
He had always defended me
And was frequently on my side.
Aware of my likes and dislikes,
Dad could always tell if I lied
Wise, respected and self-assured
My qualities, he helped amend.
I love him so, he loves me too.
He is my father and my friend.
