My Kid

A son or a daughter. It really didn't matter, I would have loved you with my everything because I was your father. You never had a chance, but I knew you would have been a great kid I would have stuck by your side no matter what you did I would have checked for monsters , and kissed way all your pains I would have kept you covered from the cold cold rain I would have taught you everything I knew, and helped you in school I would have taught you to be yourself because that's the only way to really be cool I would tell you not to be a bully, but I would still show you how to fight I would tell you that we are all the same, hating someone because of a color is never right I would tell you to do the best that you can Stick to your beliefs, be your own woman or man. I'd tell you friends are great, but never to change for anyone I'd teach you that there are consequences for all the wrongs that are done There is so much I wanted for you, so much we could have did You're with God now, but I still love you and you will always be my kid
