Life Crossroads Poem by Ronnie Williams

I know I was gone for a minute
But, the time has come to let me vent
Just a small message that I have to send
I have been doing some thinking
A little food for thought, how I’m at crossroads
A fork in the middle of the road I suppose
But, what to do when you can’t put it into words
Most poets just believe let your mind go free
Words will hit the paper, like a bird landing on a tree.
I had to laugh for a minute…And take time to think
When you think you are swimming when really have sink
Yea life has become more than I have thought
More precious than anything
Trying to remember those days
You know when your father should’ve been there
When he made promise to love you and watch over you, like he care
But, I guess he didn’t now a part of me has diminsh
I just have to throw my hands and say ” I’m Finish”
A Father should be there to pick u up when you fall
Never leave your side, or walk away when you cry.
Yea I once had that in my past time,
But I guess it has been tarnish, like a dime in the dirt
No love, no life, no hope
I guess when that day come we will meet again
Hopefully not me looking over him in a box
Eyes close, never to open no more
Or life has been reach til we meet again….
Only thing I can leave is remember be a father to your child
Don’t leave your child crying and struggling, but give them a hug to show them
you love them
I’m just only venting, releasing the pain that I’m feeling
I guess some spirtual cleansing
Just my thoughts………
