Fathers


You don't want your child?

That's not your choice.

You made that. 

How can you look at her face 

And deny her?

She's your blood

Your legend.

 

What has the world come to?

Where fathers can choose to neglect their resposibility.

Where someone can look at a child and walk away. 

 

Love her.

Spoil her.

Show her how a man is suppose to treat her. 

 

Be a man.

For her.
