I sit here watching you Knowing that it isn't you Knowing that you don't care That this little life Is just like you in every way. He looks like you He acts like you He eats, sleeps and drinks like you, He is you 19 years ago, But he is not you, He is better than you... He is also me, The opposite to you... He will grow up not knowing you Only knowing that you were here And left for want of a better life, He will grow up loving life He will grow up knowing the truth And that the truth is... There are people in the world who love us And there are people who don't... He is going to be a good person And love people for who they are Not what they are. He is only a few months old, But I know He is going to be a good person, Unlike you!!! Guys this was written a few months ago now... I found it last night when I was cleaning up. Tell me what you think... Melz!! Dont believe what ur eyes r telling u they only show limitation. Look with ur understanding, find out what u already know & u will see the way to fly |

This is a really tough situation, but you seem determined to make life better for your son. You describe your feelings well. Thanks for sharing "Where there is great love there are always miracles" -Cather "Love heals everything, and love is all there is"- Zukav |

Melster: This is a rough choice. You can tell you love you son and also feel your anger toward his mom in this poem. Good luck in the future.  Good poem! ~Lisa~ ~in order to gain, you have to lose~ |

Melster~ Its good that you have everything set in how you plan on raising your son. I wish you the best of luck. People leave our lives as quickly as they come, but the ones that mean something leave footprints in our hearts. |

Very good!! Sometimes not having that parental figure around just helps more than it could hurt. Sometimes it will be better that way... it's good you put the child first. xoxo Jenn "A person can never get over a broken heart if they aren't willing to let go of all of the pieces."-- ?? |

This was a nice poem. Hope the kid does grow up thinkin all that.....keep it up.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |
