Thanks dad.... for making my life hell....


Thank You.... Father

and so he stood,

a silent, shadowed silhouette--

a boss,
an enemy,
a stranger,
and
a loss to my heart.


the burden is felt
and carried
and known

that mark was made-
carved to scar
and lingers
in a place
where i can't wash it
clean



but
you were there,
and you knew damn well what it meant


am i supposed to re-define myself
because you don't know who you are or
who you were

and the mistake was already made
and a life is such a long time
and i should forgive you because
you didn't know better
and now you do,
yet still, are you sorry?

you always thought you had all the answers,
but where are all those answers now?
now that you are drowning
in the tide
of your own rage
