The Son I Never Had

JD Dohnal

I saw a young boy playing As I passed a schoolyard fenceI did a double take as I saw a faceI never knew I'd see againBefore his mother left meI played the role of dadThough he wasn't really mineHe was the son I never had
I wanted to approach himBut I swore I'd leave him beHis mom doesn't want him attachedTo a man she won't seeAt times I'm still bitterBut mainly I'm just sadIt's been two years and I still missThe son I never had
I wonder would he recognize meWhat are the stories he heardDoes he know it wasn't me who leftWould he believe my wordI wonder does he speak of meIs he confused insideDoes he know his mom never evenLet me say goodbye
Never had one momentUnleashed so many thoughtsRemembering the first book he readAnd the last ball he caughtIt's a shame how good memoriesCan tear me up so badMy heart won't let my mind forgetThe son I never had
The last time I tucked him inHe said "I love you, Dad"He'll always be the son I never hadIt hurts to lose the son...I should've had
