I have been a fool, made plenty of mistakes
Even had a few foundation breaks
Through it all I've filled the cracks
My heart has spackle from all the attacks
Unconditional love I now understand
It has made me become a better man
Though I have never felt my fathers love
I'm not the one to push and shove
I became strong cause he said I was weak
Now I'm standing here at my poets peak
Trying to make sense and understand
How did I become this poetic man?
A broken boy just like a toy
I must fix you, so I can deploy
All the wisdom and knowledge through life I gained
To stop the vicious cycle and break the chain
For now...I am a father too...
I can feel you now in the things I do
I stop the wrong and do what's right
To allow myself to sleep at night
You had no father! I understand....
You had no idea how to create a man
Its OK, from all your pain I still learned...
To be the best father from my pain I earned
As I sit back and watch my daughters climb
They are gracefully crossing many finish lines
Filling up my heart, A Papa So Proud
WHICH IS WHY I SPEAK THIS POEM OUT LOUD!
I rebuilt myself from all the damage done
Now I bloom like a flower in the morning sun
Becoming exactly what I was created to be
To break the cycle and give my family unity......
