A very interesting ending I think it is a very unusual lines
I can't have you in my life,
But don't forget me if you can.
The contrast between can't and can
seems to be the underlying theme of this profound poem. cans and can'ts do's and don'ts ..wiils and won'ts ... my hope is that the father can have you in his life, and see what you can.. and it does work out.. thought provoking poem
