A Father


You're suppose to be here
 
But instead you chose beer
 
A Father is suppose to care
 
not you, you like playing with your life as if it's a Truth or Dare
 
Youre suppose to be there when I cry
 
As it stands now your presence it very dry
 
A Father is suppose to have love
 
If nothing put his kids above
 
Youre suppose to be my rock
 
But my last memory of you is a sock
 
A Father is suppose to be strong 
 
And with his kids he belong
 
Youre the one who provides the advice
 
My love for you has no price
 
A Father is suppose to encourage us
 
Not when things get tough you hop on a bus

Hey ! I am Mailayasia or Asia for short. I am super sweet, bubbly, and super outgoing.... I love writing, drawing, and dancing these things are how I express myself. I don't judge. I love reading others poem because it motivates me to write a better one.
