Mediocre Poems

DAD

Anyone can be a father, but do you got what it takes to be a dad?

A father impregnates the mother and is gone without a trace

He leaves his duty for something amusing

A dad waits as mom gives birth to their offspring, but he's there for her

Am I old enough to be a dad or a father?

Kids are scary

kids are daunting

kids are a big responsibility

etcetera etcetera

We don't need both parents, mom and dad

We can have just one and be truly blessed

A mom who loves you

A dad who would kill for you

That's the difference we should all learn

At the end of the day, there's always going to be a mother to her kids, but did she raise them?

There's always going to be a father to his kids, but did he protect them?

I'm going to be a dad one day...when the time is right

Side note:

A father is the male parent who's biologically responsible for conception and ultimate birth of a baby, while a dad is the father who supports that child by providing parental care, food, shelter and clothing.

Mother is the person who gives life to a child. Mom is the person who gives her life to the raising of a child.
