This will soon become that...



He does this
He did that
He'll never do that

She didn't listen to that of which would
Not cause

He does this
He did that
He'll never do that

But did that of which she wanted and
Consequently, had to
Deal with the pain of her wanting to
Take it all back
Knowing that it was possibly
Her fault that a minute...a second wasn't even 1% his

Now a soul filled with confusion, anger, pain
Leaves him to wonder that love might not exist
only through magazines, dreams, and what it seems like everyone
Else around him smiles about
But not him because

He does this
He did that
He'll never do that

His touch, his hugs are so tremulous
Even in the same arms that
Allowed THAT to nearly take she and him

One weak mind, two hands marked by
destructive force, selfishness, and a fetus
Connected to a placenta that became
Tenebrous days/nights of loneliness

However, eyes always tell a story

He does this
He did that
AND he will do that
When that of which has caused him so much
Of the opposite, uncage their own inner maladies.
(To all the parents striving to help a child with ADHD succeed and are constantly told your child will never do this...)

  1. It has been said that any male can create life, but only a true man can raise his child.

    Children are a gift from GOD, and it is a sacred covenant that we protect and cherish these small miracles from heavean.

    There is no litmus test to becoming a parent (although there should be). It is never easy being a parent. It takes, hard work, patience & a selfless type of love. It's never easy, but always worth it!
