I thought I broke him

Anguished

Hurt

And confused

I am a man of strength, yet my Dad went in there to stop me becoming defused.

I was struggling 

Depression kicked in….again,

My Dad, a frail man, a weaker person for what he once was

But he held me in my minute of need 

I could have crushed him, I needed a giant to intervene.

I love him, my Dad, the old git

He said: “It’s all right, come here”

I was so scared, not because of his hug? 

but my strength is incredulous, but  also superfluous. 

I need you God

I truly do, please look after my Dad, apart from my brothers, he too is the man I love

No beast in-front of me could ever manage my shove.
