My Men

By Amaara Sha

He is my strength, he is my heart

I have not seen anyone more strong,

Took care of me nurtured and made me smart,

He is always beside me, saved me from every wrong.

With seven years of difference, I am a part of his life,

Even through all the fights and arguments, he never fails to protect.

Every time, I want something, I get it without even asking.

He loves me the most but will not accept.

A random connection with him grew a long way,

He has listened to me whine for the last seven years.

Every time I am in danger I turn towards him,

No matter how busy he is, he never disappears.

He is the most hardworking, is what people say,

He takes pride in what he does; my respect cannot be expressed.

He taught me and guided me in his own crazy way,

He is my role model and always wishes me best.

He is my father, my brother, my friend, my teacher.

They are, My men.
