Unwanted.

Location

No one knows, no one understands. The pain I feel. I wonder everyday why you left my side. I know it wasn't your time to go, everyone keeps saying it was. But who are you to say when it's time for an innocent man to go away to heaven. The baby in her wife's belly needed him. The troubled family needed him. They needed him to guide them in the right path. To not fall off and be addicted to drugs. To not steal from their own family. The way this family had fallen apart is ridiculously sad. No one understands. No one gets it. Try walking into a room full of people that hate you with a passion, but the people are your own family. They have no reason to hate you. But they do. To them you are the other child. The unwanted one. The one that no one wants, but is forced to see. I needed him here with me to stay. I was a 6 month old baby developing in my mom's belly. I did not deserve to grow up without dad. I needed him here to stay,to teach me the everything he knows, to protect me from all bad, and to give me the love i deserve.
