Dad
Dad
A dad is supposed to be a male figure in which you confide.
A dad is supposed to be by your side when everybody else is against you.
A dad is supposed to defend you all the way.
A dad is supposed to love you.

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
Robert Frost
nice poem. no man will be sincere with u in ur life except ur dad :)
Yep, I get this feeling :) Dad's r the rough guys that sometimes sneak not your room at night and scare u: D hehe. Btw, great poem!
Supposed is such a heavy feeling word with all its s's and p's. Brings the weight of the sentence right through it which is poignant. We can almost hear the ifs sounding around the poem.
As is their duty when they chose to become dads. Interestingly put, especially when it's incoherent as to what your dad really is like if not like the way you wrote about
