A Father's Last Stand

I'm not really good at the things that my teacher said, but I will try my best at it,out of the three of make your own song,make your own short story, and make your own poem, and I picked the poem one,  I think that I would be better at it than the others. I will make four stanzas, about the genocide that happened in Rwanda, and comparing that to my life.  I will compare this poem, to one of the worst days of my life, was when my Mom and Dad had the biggiest fight ever, and he was going to leave, and find another place, and I love my Dad, but I can not live without my Father. At the end of school when I was in bad class, I got a text message, that I will never get out of my head " I love you bud, And this will be the last day I will see you ever again " I don't think I've ever cried in school before, but I did that day, it was the worst terrible feeling I had ever felt in my live, and it was rainning real hard and all I had was a shirt and shorts and my back pack, I had to wait in the rain for 45 minutes, I was covered in rain and driping from the hair to my feet, then I got on the bus that took me home, and I saw my Dad and I hug him like never before, I didn't want to let go of him, we cried together in the rain in an alleyway, that is just right beside our house, and every day I love my Dad, and I can't really think of my live without my Dad.

 A Father's Last Stand- by Ryley Roosdahl

Fathers, some are hated
Some are loved
Others are in between
No matter what he is
He loves you
He fights for you
To the death
Because he loves you

When it started
The people came
Took your dad
They circled him
Vultures in day
As you watch
From far away
He sees you
And he cries

Then you hear
BANG!!BANG!!BANG!!
As you begin to cry
You look up
See your dad
Standing over them
Then your tears
Are now of joy

As you hug
You say I love you
And never want you to leave
And after that day
You hug more
And wish...
To thank god
For not letting him go

THE END
