A son. A dad.

ronin_kiaran

A son knows: the feeling of the greatest joy.
A dad knows: the feeling of the greatest fear.

A son knows: to look at life, as games and playtime.
A dad knows: to look at life, as chores and work time.

A son knows: that daddy will always be there for him his entire life.
A dad knows: that he can’t possibly be there for him, his entire life.

A son knows: all his dreams will happen with enough hard work.
A dad knows: all the absurdity of a pursuing futile pipe-dreams.

A son knows: he is special; above all the others.
A dad knows: he is insignificant; just like all the others.

A son knows: everything is the natural-simple-gods-honest-truth.
A dad knows: everything is an engineered-synthetic-fabricated-lie!

A son knows: mostly sweetness, idealism & endless possibilities.
A dad knows: mostly bitterness, cynisium & dead-end roads!!

A son knows: the world is an epic, mind blowing, beautiful, sparkling place.
A dad knows: the world is a small, vicious, merciless, violent, ugly, horrible place!!!

A son knows: of innocence & purity in life.
A dad knows: of scorning & scaring in life!!!!

A son knows: that the grown-ups have life figured out
A dad knows: that nobody knows WHAT THE FUCK is going ON!!!!!”

But it is ok...
...a son loves his dad with all his heart...
and
...a dad loves his son with all his heart!

!- This, they know, will not change EVER in life -!
