 I used to wonder who you were, bout my existence and and fate, then learned in life that things occur, and false resistance breeds hate, had to finally come to grips with all I cant understand, just know that all my slips and trips, made me the man that I am, the doctor said a baby boy, inside you wanted to shout, my life no games, or need for toys, your joy both inside and out, never thought I'd feel this way, see got this heart from my pops, but every time you say Andre, my world and heart seems to stop, respect each day could be my last, my past wont hurt my tomorrow, cant change thee past so all I ask, learn from the hurt and the sorrow, talk to my Granny in my dreams, she happy that we together, so many things learned from Pauline, she praying that we do better, I write, just like the saying goes that conversation is golden, Mama I write cause I suppose our conversations been stolen
