Aging Thoughts of Fatherhood

Since high school I knew I wanted to be a father. I had it all planned. Go to college, get married and by about 25 having our first child. The folly of youth made me think that it was all possible. I really didn't think it through, but that is how my mind was running.

From there I ran into a little bit of everything. From those I dated or even were just fucking ending up pregnant. I at least fucked the ones that I thought would make a semi decent parent. But the results were mind and life altering realizations.

There were miscarriages, fraudulent declaration of pregnance and I need an abortion bullshit. But the coup de grace was finding out that an ex lied about miscarrying our baby. Hell, she didn't even tell me until she had been pregnant for about 2 months at least. And she never told me that she had an abortion. I just had to think about who signed the medical form she showed me later on when I wasn't dealing with my grief. I couldn't believe that she killed our baby because she was concerned about her relationship with me. Citing that I wouldn't take care of our baby. Bitch, I was taking care of two children that were not even mine plus my god daughter. But when I finally realized her doctor friend signed the paperwork, I knew she was lying to me. She had intentionally killed our baby.

Even when I was married we tried and tried. We both wanted a child. But it never happened. It was something that put a continental divide between us. Because I no longer cared about having a child. And she was angry with me about my change in mind.

I just gave in and gave up. And I look at females as retarded monkeys when they say to me, "you dont have any children? Are you sure?" Yes, bitch I don't have any. Just because I am a black man doesn't mean I have children everywhere.

And then I hear guys and girls talking about be glad you don't have any. They are a headache and expensive. And I shake my head. Because they don't know how much of a blessing that would have been for me.

So with conversations and comments lately I wrote:

The Pipe Dream of Fatherhood

Planned Parenthood

From the beginning

I looked forward to fatherhood

The experience

Love and protection

Of a part of me

Leaving the world my legacy

I had it all planned

By 25 I would be preparing

Having made plans for my offspring

Ready to be a Dad

Life happened instead

Abortions and miscarriages

Falsified miscarriage paperwork

As I took care of other’s children

I played the role of Dad

Unable to be the actual thing I wanted

The signification of what made a man

But I gave my fatherhood

To children of the female I dated

Practiced what I wanted for me

Saw what I needed to be

Denied to me

So when it is said

It’s never too late

Even though I am almost at

Life’s half way

I just laugh

Even funnier

Is when silly females say

Are you sure you don’t have any kids

Bitch, I know where I have been

And if I did I would be happy about it

There is

The you can adopt message

And though I know I can

It still makes me feel less than

Because their DNA will not be

My essence

Who knows what is left

My thoughts on adoption may turn different

But I will always be haunted

By the visions of my child

In my arms

Teaching them life

Protecting them with my life

I will always will be left

Unfulfilled

Childless

Well

That is the life I live

I dealt with it
