A Day With My Dad

today i got something i never had.i spent this day with my brother and dad .this might not sound odd to all of you.but my dad is someone we never knew.the beer stold him away when we where kids.we always thought it was something we did.he drank more and more everyday.and along with the alcahol came the rage.he seemed to hate us more with time .we where to young to know he was out of his mind.and with this sickness he did not see that he was hurting his family.so we lost something we will never know a fathers love and as most of you know a pat on the back a good job son.praise you for a job well done. i love you son is what we long to here.but we lost all that to a bottle of beer.now you know why this day was so great just the three of us together.and i had a blast this memory i will cherish because finally at last.i know what it fells like having a dad...
