Dear Daughter

Dear Daughter, 

 

This is your father speaking 

if your mother woman's up I'll see you this weekend 

I know that our time spent is infrequent and as far as the animosity between your mother and 

I…know that I hate that you see this…

Since I don't want to be with her shes been bitter 

rather than letting you spend time with me she hired a sitter…

your crawled and you walked, grew teeth and you talked…

all you can really recall is the presents I bought…

but the presence of a father is priceless 

your mother is showing me what the definition of ice is

 by using you as a bargaining chip in exchange for a night spent…

When I picked you up from my mamas house without her "permission" she called the law and they threatened me with a sentence…

even though I contributed 50% to your existence 

and when I met your mother she didn't have a pot to piss in…

it makes me wonder how 

she can be so stingy with something so precious as you…

instead of giving me the privilege of being a father she rather have you around 

different dudes…

thats makes me sick to my stomach thats why I be thinking about taking you and just running…

Know Da-Da loves very very much even if your mother don't want me around…

even if I gotta watch you from a distance on the play ground and I hate that 

strangers probably think I'm a pedophile….

So just because I didn't get on my knee with a ring 

just because I didn't confuse love for a fling…

I gotta be patient from a side line that your mother invented 

it kills me that you don't know my voice when I'm coming because of your mothers resentment…

and this is the BS that she think I should be content with…because from me she wants more than friendship and I tried to be civil and 

play the game how she wanted…until she said I couldn't see you until she felt like I should…she screens my phone calls…turns around and text me 

"She's good..."

I just wonna push you on a swing…you gotta little brother…his name is Ali…he looks like the boy version of you he's 1 soon to be 2…

I hate that you and your little brother don't get to see each others faces on a regular basis and time is of the essence and too much has been wasted chasing your mother ultimatums…

 

Love always Daddy
