Solomon
S ociopathic tendencies blanket your eyes
O blivious to your son’s needs, deaf ears for his cries
L oyalty to crime, rats, money and the streets
O utweighed your moral compass and paternal responsibilities
M y heart breaks with every excuse given for not prioritizing me
O verlooked continuously for your own selfish needs
N o more resentment, just prayer, a Christian, I will try to be
