Poem
To My Father

Life didn’t go the way you expected
You had no idea when you were young
That you would be wed to someone who stung
And prevent us from being connected

Maybe you had high hopes of joy and love
Of an ordinary, peaceful full life
Sure with fatherhood you’d happily thrive
Instead your days continued without love

How could you have known that she’d plan to take Us away from you in body and mind
That in foreign lands you would your life make
While she not only you but all your kind

Maligned, that she’d crumble and crumple you
And that you’d never to us say adieu
