Dad.if i had only known

You helped to bring me
into this world,giving me
a name and a home that brought
me stabillty.i grew without
knowing who you really were.
Biologically you were my fater,
yet in the real sense of the word
the closeness getting good grades
in school.Praise and love was what
i needed to hear from you.You lead life
away from me always sheltered
under the neon light
