Some men are born
To be fathers.
Sad to say,
My dad is not
One of them.
I was scarcely
In my teens
When my dad abandoned his
Family for a younger woman.
My mom had to
Work hard,
Day in
Day out,
To support her four children.
Her job takes
Most of her time.
She scarcely has time
For her children.
In many ways,
I lost my mother too.
I hunger for
My mom and dad’s love.
If my dad had played dad,
This would not have happened.
But there again,
Some men are not
Born to be fathers.
