I was only 12 when you left. You turned you back on everything that loved you and chose what hurt you most. you Ran from everyone who wanted to help you. You fled from all that had had your back. You left us behind. You left me behind. You were all i had. The only one who really understood me. you have me hope. you were my hero. you left me with the responsibility of a child who doesn't belong to me. I love that child whole heartedly. He is my everything. You were my hero at one point.' You taught me so much. you will always be a part of me. you will always mean the world to me. i will always love you. No matter what. I will use what you taught me and teach my amazing nephew. I will tell him about how his father was great at one point. i will show him how to be strong and loving. thank you for the tine you gave me.
