We Need Each Other

Trent Martin

Ima keep it short & simple. My story is just like everyone else's.

Pops split when I was about 16. I never really had it rough, my mom had a great job. Not much to complain about, grew up in a decent neighborhood, got everything I wanted but I got tired of seeing my mom work. A man that was close to my father, Shug took me under his wing. Showed me the perfect lifestyle. In no time I was selling dope, I was seeing more and more money & I was hooked.

I met Cameron & my life turned upside down. I fell in love for the first time & then she told me I was going to be a father. I reacted a little too hard. I was just scared, I didn't know what to do. I never really had a father so I didn't think I was going to be a good dad.

I eventually got my shit together but it was too late, Cam lost the baby in a car accident. I lost my mind when I found out. I never really told Cam how I felt after Carter died. I never really asked her how she felt. . .we never really talked about it. We just grieved separately.

Now she's pregnant again & im ready to be a father. I'm ready to have a family.
