Fatherhood

The first task of a father is to protect,
you identify adversity, then filter and reject. 
Something unidentified shows as a vague silouhette 
without assesment, I move forward to intercept. 
Time has gone by and I must soften my approach
and step back to encourage development and promote
but beginning to expose him I truly hate the most. 
I must lower my shield, letting the real world in
and ignore my need to protect him on a whim. 
I cannot wait to meet the man he will one day know
but I still see him as mine and am not ready let go.
