Son, someday you'll find out who I really am. But for now, know that I loved you, and did all that I could. Even though you were a part of me, I turned my back on you. I just wasn't ready for the world I had in you. You came along by surprise and took my heart away. Son, someday you'll meet me. Then you'll know what kind of man I am. A man who cares, a man who dies, a man who's crying inside. For I'm the one who has made a mistake by not being there for you. Son, someday you'll understand why I did what I did. The reasons why I left are uniportant now, just know that I always loved you. All that matters now, is that you become what I could not. Son, please forgive me. I didn't mean to hurt you. I abandoned you and left you with your mother. I hope she loved you mor than I did. Son, I'm sorry. I'm crying with every day that I miss of your life.
Reason for writing:
the fact that a friend of mine had to leave his son to his mother after they got divorced. He had to leave him because he was dying of cancer and didn't know how much longer he was going to be alive.
