The Head is Nothing More Then Flesh

(poems go here)WOW...you are the perfect example for the saying "arms of flesh will fail you" everytime!Its real funny how you can start a brand new life with brand new people. Cut the ones who are suppose to really matter out like they don't even matter anymore because it was so easy to replace them; their memories, expieriences and bonds. smh at what you have become. Its okay because i've had so many, that this one doesn't surprise me. Kinda Happy because you prepared me for the future ones to come. Wow smdh i use to beg you to come to  my moving up cerimonies, band banquetes, graduations, and performances, social,prom, or even take me to college like everyone elses dad would.

Cheer them on and just be proud of me that im not on the street pregnant, on drugs, or another statistic. But a independent young lady that you brought into this world. My blood runs through your vains but you support her. my face looks like yours but you kiss her cheek at her cerimonies. My mentality, walk and built thats all you. But your proud of her????

What makes her so special? You would sit in front of your t.v and watch me leave to go perform every day off to practice but you never wanted to know me. but you know her. Now I hate him because he was suppose to replace you. He did his best but couldnt because he's flesh. but if you were here there probably would be no him. because my perspective of you would not be what i see in him ...and now i have picked up your behavior. It feels better to run your right have no responsibilty... I live for the ones you deserted. i work for them breath and live for them because they are me. i see them in me. thats why the left arm will be more then flesh...but blood and repair the rest. I' am my fathers child
