That bastard
Who does he think he is
My mother
She was heartbroken
Because of my father
Who had divorced her
After his countless affairs
Even though my mother stayed up late
With food on the table for him
For him to never show up
Even though my mother still kept the photos of him around the house
Kept his initials
Kept his last name
Even though my mother endured his beatings
My mother
She loved him
And he cheated her out for everything
He outright denied me as his child
Accused my mother of cheating
Even though
I looked just like him
My mother
Had two of him
I was a reminder that my mother would never heal from him
But my mother
She says
You're not like your father
Don't compare yourself to him
Or else you will become like him
you know how to love those you care about
please
You're all I have left
Dont leave me
