As the days go slowly by
I feel an ache and yearning,
This time apart from my kids
has me missing them more and more.

Life keeps going on its way
and I miss more of their lives,
Lost in confusion I struggle on
till the day they are home with me.

Wrong choices took them away
to be raised by someone else,
Now I fight and struggle daily
to be the father that they need.

Each day that passes ever on
hurts more and more inside,
Still I try and I fight again
to do that which is right.

My life was ruled by my youth
because I was to weak to change,
The love I feel for my children
has inspired me to make a change.

To make a change in your life
you must have a real reason,
Something that you can focus on
like my kids are for me!
