Poem
SITTING alone waiting for him to appear So I can prove his kids no longer have to fear The man they call daddy who mistreats them all Begging god himself to bring him to me so he can fall How does the system fail to protect allowing him to skate the lines of neglect He tells them he only loves one not all 3 Then they come home to cry to me I am the figure whom shows them safety and I wait and wait for him to appear as he sleeps safely I am the only one willing to stay awake Why does everyone enjoy watching me break I have fought over a year to show her the truth within It took a year for anything to even begin Every visitation ending in emotional scars How can this man allude being behind bars He tortures his own children I cant keep witnessing abuse if I take matters in my own hands I am no use to my own children who need their father How can I jeopardize their safety this is getting harder I have reached a boiling point sanity now spilling He continues to show his ugly head and how much he is willing to do to 3 little kids who just want their dad I am dying watching these kids feel sad I want to fight and end this abuse at his stem I just want happiness and safety for all of them instead I am stuck eyes wide open all night long I feel I am the reason they have to witness his wrong if I were not here would they better off ? please answer I do not want to be this families terminal cancer He eats at their being with every selfish remark I am the Man who they seek when they need a spark I want to be the life that drives this family to glee Just one wish that someone would fight as hard for me
