Where is he?


When life throws you something unexpected you duck,

You don't want to get caught up in all the commotion.

You want to get away but all you can think of is one person.

 

What if?  Is the question that runs through your mind.

What if he hadn't left?

What would have happened if he was a better man?

A man who didn't lie about his mistakes.

A man who could have changed.

A man who could have cared.

A man who should still care.

A man who didn't cheat, and make other people bail him out.

A man less cold hearted, and more concered for his family.

Where is this man?

No one knows.

I just know he is wanted and needed in every home.

Someone needs a mans love, compassion, and protection.
