Fatherless Trends

Where do I begin? I have two wonderful boys looking up to me 
I'm not the best man to be in this terrifying yet amazing position
My father was never there to present any path for me to see
It seems that , if in front of them, I just end up making horrible decisions
 
I understand that everyone makes mistakes from time to time.
What if my next is the mistake that causes them to hate and never forgive
These thoughts may just be paranoia, but for the moment, they’re stuck on my mind
It scares me that I may be showing them the wrong way to live
 
Every step I make, they will always be there watching their dad
It’s scary to think that my mistakes can change their lives forever
There may be moments where I cause them to feel lonely and sad
I need to make sure they know my love stretches beyond their future
 
No matter the distance I go, in my heart are my boys.
My outlook on life was totally different before they entered the picture
Never in a million years would I have thought that I would encounter such joys
I need to start to do what I must to be a positive and permanent fixture
 
I need to be there to comfort them when physically or emotionally, they get hurt
I need to put my all in to making sure that they have everything they could need
If they come to me after getting injured, I should be there  to brush it off like dirt
I need to teach them and I the way to grow into a man, as a tree that grows from a seed
 
Through all of the mistakes that I have made and have yet to make
Somehow, I know that everything will work out in the end
As they mature into two great men, I know they will understand what I had at stake
I need to learn how to love and stop a fatherless trend
