PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Dad-

I wish you were here now.  There are times I smell your swisher sweet cigars and know you’re in the room. I wish you were here to say now Lynn it will be alright. I know you’ve been hurt by love, and I know that person promised me they’d take care of you but instead ruined you.



I wish you were here now just so I could hear, “ I love you darling”.

Dad, I need a strong democrat to fight with since I am a strong republican .

Dad, it’s been such a long year. Words I never thought I’ d hear from someone I heard.

I don’t understand how you lived with someone who was emotionally abusive to you, but yet you loved her. It’s hard dad.



Dad, I did finish one thing, that doctorate degree you wanted me to get. I finished it. You said Philosophy was my forte.



Dad, Can you make her stop? Can you reach down from heaven and show her no one messes with your children, no one hurts them, or follows, or violates them and gets away with it.



Dad, I cry tears at night wondering what she is going to do next.  I wonder what the next thing will happen, which member of my church will get a letter, which member of my employment will get a letter, who else will walk up to me and threaten me?



Dad, I make you a promise never again will I give up the name you gave me, nor the values you raised me with.  I love you dad and am asking you to help me through this.



Just wanted to share my life with you, and let you know what was happening dear Dad.
