My Addiction

**Double Acrostic** Many maleficent moments of misuse and malcontent left me Yearning. Lonely, I was searching, lusting for fatherhood in the wrong arms. Attractive, alluring you found me appealing. You changed me! Delighted, my dream finally came to fruition. We had our first daughter. Dedicated, devoted in this reality, finally, no longer just a dream. Incredibly, i'm am now the father of two. Conditional love, captivated by the gift of procreation. I am blessed. Tactful, no longer full of transgression I am tough but triumphant I am your father, your hero the one you can depend on, always. Overjoyed, the happiest I've ever been. I am blessed and in Nirvana.

Thank you for visiting. I am more than smitten with my babies. My daughters are my soul, i can't believe i went almost 40 years without them. I can't imagine my middle age without them... Much love Asavvy1

My wife! Yeah, it's been a while. Between moving from the east to the Midwest, new career, marriage and my babies I have had a full plate. I have much to talk about so I'll be uploading content soon. Much love Asavvy1

"I am your hero, the one you can depend on." This thought curls softly around me, and touches my heart deeply. I can tell you're floating on cloud nine. Your kids are lucky to have you in their life. This is such a beautiful dedication to them. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

Spoken from the heart!! Trust and believe, this is the first of many that have to do with my girls. I am very much on cloud nine, even when faced with the frustrations of parenthood. Thank you so much for your kind words and taking the time to read. Much love Asavvy1
