Poetry

I sat by for the past 15 months,

hoping you will come around and be the father he needs.
I cry myself to think of the times that will be left out of his life.
because a daddy is what he needs.

I wish you would be here for all the tears.

the first words, the first crawl the first tooth.
But will he go through all these years, without you?
because a daddy is what he needs.

All I ask is for you to love him.

because all he needs is you in his life.
