IT WAS FATHERS DAY...AND MY DAD TOTALLY ROCKS!!!

I wrote this on fathers day. Just really late posting it.

FATHERS DAY

I remember...uh...uh...come to think of it I remember nothing.

See my papa was no rolling stone.
45 minutes to an hour away my whole life.
Had more children and a wife.
2 story house with a nice yard and a dog type living.
I guess he never realized what was missing.
Me and my brother always depended on our mother.
She was the light in the midst of the darkness that was you.
Providing us with all the things you didn't.
It wasn't just the love we missed. But the fact that you never made an attempt that had us pissed.
No happy moments on which to reminisce.
Just the knowledge learned from the school of single parents.
Super woman playing all parts: mother, father, and friend.
Finally got the courage to let this all out but u, you'll never read this.
Cause after 20 years if u can't already see this you're worse than i thought.
But u probably thought that it was great that your child support was hardly ever late.
I mean sure that's more than some men do.
But real men know that child support doesn't support a child the way a father does.
Didn't turn me into the daddy's girl i was supposed to be.
Instead i learned that some men ain't shit in this world.
But on this fathers day i want to say thank you.
You showed me what a father is by being everything one is not.
And i thank you for that.
Thank you for being such a sorry excuse that i will never make for any man in my life.
I know the type of man i deserve and he's the exact opposite of you.
And with that, all of this was just to say...
Happy fathers day.

Daddy.
