See Son

                       See Son
  See son, everything's not always what it seems. On the nineteenth of the third month in 'sixteen. I put down what was hidden behind the scenes. By the twenty second I wish I was having a bad dream. Pacing around the apartment, looking like a cross between a fiend and an actor practicing before going on screen. JUST realized I lost my POPs at the end of 'fourteen. Just a few months later YOU came in the beginning of 'fifteen. See son, this has been going on longer than it seems. As you lay in your crib I'm sitting knowing when you wake up I'm REALLY going to hold you now. My mind freed and a burden off my shoulders now. Lost him to the same road I WAS going down, but YOU'RE MY reason and promise to always hold YOU down. Never once neglected, never once exposed you now. But it GOT out of control and I REALLY know it now. See son, I love you to death and I PROMISE to ALWAYS show it now. And I promise to POPS that KNOX's going to really know ME now.
