I WROTE THIS POEM BECAUSE I AM CURRENTLY GOING THREW A HARD TIME WITH HIM...HE DOESN'T LET ME SEE MY KIDS HARDLY AND I NEVER DID THAT TO HIM WHEN THEY WERE WITH ME...SO TO ALL THOSE PARENTS EITHER SIDE WHO ARE GOING THREW A HARD TIME I BELIEVE STRONGLY YOU WILL KNOW HOW THIS FEELS.
..~*NEVER*~..
I NEVER KEPT THEM FROM YOU,
YET YOUR KEEPING THEM FROM ME.
I LET THEM SPEND HOLIDAYS WITH YOU,
BUT YOU WON'T LET THEM WITH ME.
I WAS NEVER AFRAID OF YOU HAVING THEM,
YET YOUR AFRAID OF ME.
I WOULDN'T EVER BELITTLE YOU,
YET IT'S EASY FOR YOU TO BELITTLE ME.
AS A FATHER I TRUSTED YOU,
EVERYDAY YOU DOUBT ME.
I MADE SURE THEY KNEW YOU LOVED THEM,
YOU WANT THEM TO HATE ME.
YOUR NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO LOVES THEM,
MY LOVE YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY!
IF YOU TRULY LOVED THEM LIKE ME,
YOU WOULDN'T BE HURTING THEM MY KEEPING THEM AWAY.
THEY ARE GETTING OLDER BUT THEIR NOT BLIND,
THE OLDER THEY GET THE SMARTER THEY ARE.
ONE DAY THEY'LL KNOW YOU DID THIS NOT ME,
EVEN THEN I STILL WON'T HATE YOU BECAUSE THEIR OUR KIDS NOBODY ELSES!
I GAVE BIRTH TO HEALTHY CHILDREN,
AS THEY GET OLDER THATS HOW THEY WILL REMAIN.
NOT ONCE DID I EVER THINK OF KEEPING THEM FROM YOU,
YET YOUR DETERMINED TO DO IT TO ME.
ONE DAY THEY'LL SEE THE TRUTH,
BECAUSE THEIR HEARTS WILL TELL THEM NOT ME!
I'M NOTHING LIKE YOU AND NEVER WILL BE,
I SHOWED THEM GOOD PARENTS NOT ONES BATTLING!
YOU'VE CHOSEN THE WRONG PATH,
AND IT'S NOT OKAY WITH ME.
YOUR HURTING OUR CHILDREN,
BUT YOUR TO BLIND TO SEE.
ONE DAY YOU'LL GROW UP,
BUT IT WILL BE TO LATE AND YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO PUT THE BLAME ON ME.
I NEVER WOULD HAVE PUT THEM IN THE MIDDLE,
JUST BECAUSE IT DIDN'T WORK BETWEEN YOU AND ME.
I LOVE OUR CHILDREN TO MUCH,
TO HAVE PUT THEM THREW SUCH PAIN.
OPEN YOUR EYES BEFORE YOU DESTROY THEIR LIVES,
YOUR GIVING THEM A LIFE NO CHILD DESERVES TO LIVE.
NO ONE CAN REPLACE ME ,
BECAUSE THEY LOVE ME TO NOT JUST YOU.
THEY DESERVE TO LOVE BOTH OF US AS PARENTS,
BUT THAT YOU FAIL TO BELIEVE.
GIVE IT UP YOU CAN'T ERASE ME,
I'M THEIR MOTHER NOT THEIR ENEMY.
THE LOVE WE SHARE YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY,
THIS THEY KNOW BECAUSE THEY NOT ONLY SEE IT BUT FEEL IT IN THEIR HEARTS NOW, FOREVER AND FOR ETERNITY!
