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
