In the silent watch of night's embrace,

A father stands, a stoic face.

Bearing the weight of unspoken fears,

His heart was a fortress, veiled in tears.

The perils of fatherhood, a silent storm,

Guiding a vessel, keeping it warm.

A journey through uncharted seas,

Navigating life's uncertainties.

In his arms, a future held tight,

A beacon of love in the darkest night.

Yet, fears whisper of paths unknown,

A seed of worry was silently sown.

For every laugh, a shadow of doubt,

In every step, fear whispers shout.

But steadfast he stands, through turmoil and strife,

For the peril of fatherhood, is the love of his life.
