Fatherless Still Stands Tall

Thought I needed you Thought you were great Thought you were going to be there, but now it's too late Hoping and praying you would get me out that bed and say there's another way Come with me I thought you would say Baby we family lets Pray Lets hold hands lets share grace I thought you would be there Your eyes lied to my face You love the streets more than you love me I lost you to everything why you never hold me Sorry to say I don't won't you in my life I Made it out OK I love you but the pain ends today. I want a father Really needed one to Tell me how beautiful I was in every way Cant breathe don't help me Cause I never felt a warming touch from my Father Only from a horny boy I was scared that having her I was going to lose you in Every way but she's here to stay I'm glad to cause I was missing that father piece and she fulfilled it for YOU She completes me And that's why a fatherless child can STAND TALL

IN THIS POEM IS BASED ON MY REAL LIFE.....EVERYBODY DOES NOT HAVE A FATHER THAT'S GOING TO B THERE...N THIS IS MY THOUGHT S N MY FEELINGS AND I'M VERY APPLAUD SOMEONE THAT DOESN'T LIVE MY LIFE CAN EVER SAY IT WAS SELFISH OF ME TO SAY I'M A GIRL TRAPPED IN THIS BIG BIG WORLD WITH NO FATHER THINK ABOUT IT....IT'S REALITY!!!

If you've gone through this love should be a cinch Sherelle, it really should. This would've been a lot scarier for me if I didn't have a dad that was around.
