A Father's Day In Africa




I love you and lets face it
I know you love me too
I know women lie and I also know men try
I know daddies die and I have seen families cry
But I am just saying
All these little things make up this very life
If I was to die today
Will you be in that position to be the girl to stay?
Or will you be the girl that will just pack up and walk away?
You know am just saying
If I was to get locked up somewhere in prison
Will you have so many reasons
Not to take care of our baby son or daughter
Will you take the responsibility to be called my baby mama?
But
You know am just saying
Even when I am making a fool out of myself or messing around
Will you still be that ride or die chick I used to know?
Or will you deserted me in this cold world all alone?
You know am just saying
If things were to turn around
And I was to lose my job
Will you always rub it in my face
And let me regret how I woke up the next day
Just to realize you weren’t the woman I married
But you know am just saying
And if I was to be up all night taking care of our baby
Will you be out there changing men like the way you change clothes?
And Fill the fridge board with baby notes?
And in the mornings when I take him/her to see my folks
Do I have to feel that I will come back home
So you can slap my face with mean quotes
You know am just saying
Sometimes when I sit down
And watch my life crush before my eyes
It feels like Floating in my agony filled with tears and cries
But then
At last GOD reaches down like
“O child, take a deep breathe cos’ it’s just the worst of the last
You are the man of kings and the kings of man
I appreciate your faithfulness of being a single father”
And then it snapped 
Because that call was in a dream
And when you wake up, you should know that this is a real life story which happened somewhere in Ghana
