Whether you are a curious son or a crying daughter,
this is for you if you do not know your biological father.
You want to know why you do not see your daddy everyday,
so you ask mommy where he is, but she does not say.
Like a John Doe, you do not even know his first name.
You wonder why he is not in family videos and picture frames.
You call yourself a mistake, but please listen. Do not feel this way.
Who knows? Maybe things are just better off without him anyway
since he might have been an addict, abuser, or criminal.
Maybe he just tragically passed away at a very young age.
Whichever the case, I can truly say one thing valuable,
and that is to remain calm, strong, hopeful, and brave.
Look up to those who are your positive role models,
find a father figure in them, and your life will be okay.
