Fathers Creed

Fathers creed
With every child I conceive
I will leave behind a part of me

This is my holy grail 2 eternity

What I share and teach
the world will see
I'll die knowing
This is my Contribution
To help build a better society

My aspirations is to instill characteristics
That are moral up-right and true

Walk beside them and guide them
Teach them how to pick the ripest fruits
Reveal that the best things in life are free
And believe none of what they here
Only what they see

So when it's their time to leave my house
I'll be secure in my fatherhood
B/c I raised my kids from the inside/out

Dream Dismantled

Dream dismantled 

I fell in love with an
Petite, fawn brown angel
Somehow I Didn't know it

In return she yearned
compassion, understanding patents and dedication
 
But I was unable to show it

Despite my jaded ideologies
my unwillingness To believe
My angel never selfish
Always sharing her halo with me  

Obtuse and naive  
Within a certain degree

Unaware and mislead
My mental baggage 
Made it impossible to conceive.
My pursuit of happiness 
Was finally achieved

Truly a blessing in disguise 
in the form of a friend
Reduced to a Dream dismantled  
Never to be seen or heard from again.
