I never Meant to written by Polecat

I never meant to hit him. I never meant to beat on my own child.
I never meant for him to cower before me,
cringe when I call his name,
flinch when I go to embrace him.

I never meant to hurt her.
I never meant to cheat on her.
I never meant to run around town with every girl younger and prettier than her.
I never meant to pay for any whore on the street corner, and bring her back to our bed.

I never meant to drive my own child from my house.
I never meant for him to earn his living on the streets.
I never meant for him to lead a life like I did.

I never meant to have a child with anyone but her.
I never meant to bring this burden down on her.
I never meant to bring that woman into our bed.

I swear to you, I never meant to turn into my father.

I had Spot in mind when I wrote this, only because he seems to be the typical playboy type in most fic. Sorry Spot, guess you're stereotyped *Spot!Muse glares but looks more sexy than intimidating, so no one is scared*.
