The man with false morals

Where is he?
The innocent babe asks.
Suddenly, I'm looking at my life
Through a looking glass.
Searching for answers
Lost in the past.
The future is upon me
It happend so fast.
How do I answer such a question
Without reason or rhyme?
I just say I do not know
And that we'll both be fine.
A puzzled look
Then a smile
I love you Mommy
Comes in a little while.
Perhaps he moved away.
I watch my bright five year old say.
How easy it would be,
Allowing him to think truth
Of his fantasy.
So I just say I do not know.
All the while thinking
How fast he has grown.
With no answers to give
I look away.
Thinking to myself
That the jerk will be judged one day.
The jerk...a man with false morals,
Not a conscious to boot.
Naieve and young,
I thought he was a hoot.
Quite the lesson I learned,
What it's like to fall
And get burned.
Yet out of my perception of hell
Life went on
And we're doing quite well.
Through struggles and triumphs
I have proceeded
To become everything
The little one has needed.
A cross to bear
I would not call him
For when you left
It was sink or swim.
Now here I am
Almost six years later
Eternally grateful that I swam.
