Poem
I have not yet been able to find a title to this poem, but I started writing and it just flowed out of me so peacefully and it drained my body of some of the negativity my father has left behind. Long way to go, but I'm glad to find a good outlet! I hope you guys like it! Thanks for your time
My heart aches
My mind wakes
These thoughts won't seem to go away
The thought that maybe one day
I'll be at ease
No longer begging you please
The thought that one day
I'll be able to say
Dad, I don't care.
I don't care that you can't love me
Not in the way love should be
For those who love truly
Could never harm so cruelly.
They wouldn't put on their child
Darkness that drives the mind so wild
You wouldn't touch the forbidden fruit
Then keep secrets hidden in your suit
When questions raise
You still soak in undeserving praise
Because what it comes down to
Is that you are too selfish to
Forget about your pedestal
To rid of the demons who lure
Around your daughters hearts
For they are tearing lives apart
But you don't care
Not for our tears
Only for your own pain
And knowing that is what keeps me sane
Because dad, we are not the same.
And I may not be completely tame
But I know never to put my desires above someone else's needs
because that negativity plants seeds
That cause the bad thoughts to grow
But I will never be the source of this i truly know
Because dad, we are not the same.
