A father is supposed to stay
Love you unconditionally
Teach you right from wrong
Be there every step of the way
A father is your biggest fan
Scolds you when you misbehave
Support you when you make a mistake
Build you up
Protect you
Pick you up when you fall
A father's not supposed to
Yell and scream
Make you feel useless
Treat you like your nothing
Throwing things and cussing
That's what you do
You tell me you love me
But the way you act says otherwise
A father is to love
A father is to protect
A father is to help
A father is not what you are
A father doesn't have to be blood
That's what he is
He stepped up
Took your place
He is a father
Not a monster
Actions speak louder than words
A father is not what you are
A coward more like it
Six years old I should have been wearing pretty pink dresses with flowers in my hands
Not crying on our doorstep hiding over some broken crayons
You just walked out
Blamed everything on everyone else
That's not a father
A father stays
A father helps
A father does not accuse or abuse
You chose to abuse
Physical trauma
Scars that don't heal well
Mental trauma
Trust issues and fear
Sexual trauma
Poor self image
You cause pain everywhere you go
That's not what a father does
You did that
You're not a father
You're a coward and a monster
A father sets a good example for his children
A father teaches his kids to love
Not to hate
