Father of a child

HE was a father, the father of a child,

the child not only loved him but also idolized,

He was stubborn, the child, and full of many faults,

but the father still loved him, he was strong like a vault.

One day, child in his crazy ways decided to run away,

a sin unpardonable, a debt impossible to pay.

The consequences were deadly and hard to bear,

the father was too angry and it made him swear.

He had to abandon the crazy child,

since what he had done was nothing close to mild.

The child had to be taught a lesson,

by avoiding the repeat, the pain can be lessened.

The father soon found a pretty angel, who would love him even more,

and the bond the child had took only minutes before it tore.

The child looked on with desperate eyes,

cause no one would listen to his wailing cries,

The "potion of life" that he drank till date,

was unfortunately badly imprisoned by fate.

he breathed hard, even harder to keep inhaling on,

but the life he wanted had left him and long gone.
