I’m sorry to my children

 I’m sorry to my children that I didn’t pick a better father.

You deserve more than broken promises and half-present love.
You deserve to be protected, not left wondering why the people who were supposed to show up didn’t.

If I could go back, I’d choose differently for you.
But all I can do now is promise that I’ll love you enough to make up for the parts that are missing.
That I’ll be both the softness and the strength.
That I’ll build a world where you never have to question if you’re wanted.

Because you are.
You always were.
And even if I couldn’t choose better then I’ll choose better now, every single day, for you.
