'father'

Folder: 
Feelings...

you are not what you say you are

you've never been

and

i carry that everyday of my life

wondering

what i did wrong

if i'm good enough

why you didn't care

it feeds into my insecurities

into my life of despair

cause

even though the chances were there

the oppurtunity

you still weren't





it takes alot for me

to

even entertain the thought

of letting you in

cause

alot of what i struggled with

was because of you

i feel

that i was hated

being a product of you

so

i hated myself in return



       was it even worth it?



lies

deception

unfulfilling promises



story of my life



        but

in the end

i am stronger for it all



realizing now that i never really needed

you

your replacement was

               oh

                 so

                      STRONG

cause he loved me harder than

anyone else

had

he is

      everything to me

       everything you were supposed to be

        everything you should've been

the epitome of the definition

of what the word



'father'

        could ever mean

and

your lack of interest

brought him into my life



                         ...so



at the end of it all



i thank you
