The Walk Up
We were sitting on the couch
When my mom got the call
He wanted to meet me
But I didn’t know him at all
So we drove to his house
And I began to stand
I start to walk up
Holding moms hand
That moment took forever
Looking at his face
His hand over his chest
Breathing was all over the place
I finally know where my skin came from
I can finally accept my race
Then he got a letter
He was being called to court
He yelled at the man
Because HE couldn’t pay his child support
And that was the last time I saw him
He never answered the phone
He could be in jail right now
Or perfectly safe at home
