Where Has a Father's Love Been Lost?


Where has a father’s love been lost,
In what cold winds, at what high cost?
For once he stood with equal grace,
But now he’s fading, out of place.

In homes, in courts, and hearts alike,
His love is questioned, out of sight.
For every tear a mother cries,
The father’s heart too slowly dies.

Yet still you say his love is small,
As if he’s absent from it all.
In stories told and laws that bind,
He’s left behind, an afterthought, blind.

Is it in silence where he stands,
That makes you doubt his loving hands?
Is love not quiet, firm, and true,
Just as the mother’s love you knew?

Where have we failed to see his worth?
In every laugh, in every birth?
His love was there when nights grew long,
His care was there, both soft and strong.

But somewhere, somehow, we forgot,
The father’s love that never stopped.
In modern tales, in views today,
His love has drifted far away.

So here I ask, both loud and clear,
Why is his love so hard to hear?
For every mother’s gentle tone,
There’s a father’s heart that beats alone.

We’ve lost him in the noise of life,
In battles fought with needless strife.
But love is equal, love is fair—
A father’s heart deserves to share.

So bring him back into the light,
For he has loved with all his might.
No more should fathers bear the cost,
Where has a father’s love been lost?

A Father’s Cry

I stand alone in hollow halls, Echoes loud of courtroom calls. My heart is torn, my soul is weak, Yet for my child, I stand and speak. Not for revenge, nor for my pride, But for the love I hold inside. A love so pure, yet cast away, As laws decide who gets to stay. I fight for hugs, for hands to hold, For bedtime tales, for days of gold. Yet ink and paper bar my way, As love is weighed in what they say. I watch from far as time slips by, A silent tear, a father’s cry. Birthdays pass, unwrapped, unseen, Stolen moments, shattered dreams. Do they not see, do they not feel, A father’s love is just as real? Not just a visitor, not just a name, A heart still burns within the flame. And though the walls may stand so tall, Though I may stumble, though I may fall, One truth remains, as strong as stone— My child, my love, you're not alone. For every battle, every tear, I fight today, I’ll fight each year. No court, no law, no force can sever, A father’s love—it la...

A Husband’s Silent Scream

I stand alone in this endless fight, A ghost in law’s unyielding sight. Bound by chains I did not weave, Crushed by vows that made me believe. Her words are daggers, laced with lies, Yet justice turns its blinded eyes. My truth is lost in echoes cold, As silence tightens its ruthless hold. Each day, I drown in hollow pleas, Begging courts on bended knees. Yet every plea, every tear, Falls on ears that refuse to hear. They call me villain, strip my name, Burn my life in legal flames. With hands once strong, now bound and weak, I search for hope—I barely speak. Is death the door to end this pain? A final step, a fleeting gain? Or is there more beyond the night, A distant spark, a chance for light? If you hear me, if you see, Don’t let this fate imprison me. For many men, unheard, unseen, Still scream inside this cruel machine.

State vs. Husband

He vowed to love, to stand, to stay, Yet laws decide to strip away. A whispered word, a claim so thin, And justice turns its back on him. No trial fought, no proof in sight, Yet still he's cast into the night. A villain made without a crime, A life undone before its time. He built a home, he raised a child, Yet now he’s seen as cruel and wild. The courts don’t ask, they just decree, His voice is lost in legal sea. A father’s love, a husband’s plea, Drowned beneath bureaucracy. His side unheard, his hands now tied, As silence swallows all his pride. He walks alone, no light, no guide, Labeled guilty, pushed aside. Yet does he not deserve to stand? Or is he doomed by law’s own hand?
