Array ( [sid] => 86752 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => EXPLAINATIONS [time] => 2005-03-07 16:17:22 [hometext] => THIS POEM IS FOR MY DAUGHTER. I HAVEN'T ALWAYS BEEN A GOOD FATHER, BUT THINGS CHANGE. MY LOVE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE, I JUST DIDN'T SEE IT FOR AWHILE. PLEASE COMMENT. [bodytext] => THE DAY YOU WERE BORN
YOU BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES
ITS HARD TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU
MY HEART JUST WANTS TO DIE
I WASNT ALWAYS A GOOD FATHER
BUT NOT ONCE DID YOU SAY
YOU DIDN'T CARE
THE STREETS WERE APART OF ME
AND TO YOU THIS WASN'T FAIR
WHEN I GOT LOCKED UP
ALL I THOUGHT ABOUT WAS YOU
I THANK GOD FOR WATCHING OVER YOU
CAUSE IF HE HADN'T
I WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT ELSE I COULD DO
WHEN YOU WERE A BABY
YOU USE TO LAY ON MY CHEST
TO LISTEN
TO THE BEAT OF MY HEART
BEHIND THE WALLS
I WAS STAYING STRONG
BUT EMOTIONALLY
I WAS FALLEN APART
I WAS SO BLESSED JUST TO HAVE YOUR VISITS
YOU ALWAYS HAD A SMILE ON YOUR FACE
I'M SORRY YOU HAD TO SEE ME AT MY BOTTOM
AND THAT YOU HAD TO SEE ME IN THAT PLACE
WE HAD GOTTEN CLOSER WHEN I WAS FREED
I AM GONNA SUCCEED FOR BOTH YOU AND ME
I'M PROUD OF YOU AND THE THINGS YOU DO IN SCHOOL
DONT THINK IT GOES UNNOTICED
YOU MOM IS THE ONLY FOOL
I KNOW IT HURTS NOT TO HAVE HER AROUND
BABY
I'VE BEEN IN YOUR SITIUATION
DADDY WILL BE THERE WHEN YOUR DOWN
I KNOW I CANT MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME
BUT THERE ISN'T ONE SECOND THAT YOU NOT ON MY MIND
ONE DAY SWEETHEART
WE WILL FINALLY LIVE TOGETHER
AND I SAY
ONE DAY
BECAUSE THEY ARE TRYING TO TAKE US APART
BUT THEY DONT UNDERSTAND DO THEY?

This is a beautiful poem. I loved it. It is also sad too. Knowing that you can't live with your daughter. I hope that one day you will be able to.

I am enjoying your poems.

Always take care,
~Jasmine~
