Note To 'Daddy' Poem by Brittany Lynn

Note To 'Daddy'



no matter where i turned, no matter who i seen. in the back of my
heart you were the only one for me.

i wish i could turn back time, and make it all brand new. back to when you smiled, back to when i had you.

now theres nothing left but yelling about the son i made
myself. i didnt want it to be this way, but i could never get your
help.

you want to drink and party, like a teenage boy. i had to grow
up quicky, so i can buy my son some toys.

im going back to school, to make a life for him. you get to run around and pretend we dont exist.

this isnt fair to us, you wanted to be a dad, now your doing nothing,
and acting like your mad.

your not the only person who doesnt have
alot, that doesnt make it right to act like you forgot.

were going to do it without you, and were going to be alright. we never needed you, i carried him just fine.

one day he will grow up, and know its not my fault. your the one who should have been there, not drinking alcohol.

i hope you have a good life, but the way your going
now, wont get you anywhere but underneath the ground.

me and jaxon chad will do great without you near, cause he will have his mommy, and you can have your beer.

Hello Brittany... This brought a tear to my eyes which doesn't happen too often these days... Primarily as it took me back to when I was 20 and had my first child. I could see many lucky friends (some with almost stifling support from their parents) when I had to go into accompdation at 20 for a while... One friend got bought a microwave by her mum! ! ! Years ago I know but I remember thinking why don't I feel like I can ask mine for anything.. It is wrong, parents do have the kids and just when they need them most it's like the parents become the kids... The other thing I love is your total honesty, it just feels so honest... Love it tyvm. Karen :) good luck btw
