A Letter To My Future Child
A LETTER TO MY FUTURE CHILD
I wonder if you will ever see me,
I wonder if one day you will exist,
I wonder if one day you see my smile,
You don't exist and might never
but the least I can do is promise you that I your father loves you unborn
Come and grow up in this world though I know it’ll be difficult for you
This world is full of good and evil
Though it’s not a good world but I admire to hold baby
Come and I will hold you like my mother never held me
I don't plan for your actual existence now
but if that happens and you find this world I live in
Don’t be diminished to let your dream fade
To my future darling get this right
Even if I don’t know your real face
Don’t abort my child when time comes
My son is so precious to my than a golden bar
My kid is like engine of my car and I can’t drive with him
He is the roof of my house, I can’t stay without it
He is my clothes I can’t walk naked
Don’t hurled my child into the pit
I would love my child with everything
I wouldn't want anything to ever hurt you
even know I know that will never be true
but the most I can do is keep you healthy and safe
because this world is a twisted place
which is why I never planned to bring you into this basket case
I hope that society accepts you for who you are
no matter your sex, orientation, gender,
because you are worth so much more
you are the only you that exists
you are more than what society tells you
you are the only one in charge of your truth
don't let society tell you are you are merely handsome or pretty
because these traits fade and are petty
it just matters how good your soul is
My future child listens to this
I will wish you to be a poet like your dad Masoni
I will wish you speak Good English like me
I will wish you make many friends like I do
I will like you to be polite like me but stand by your principles, son
