DEAR DADDY!


Dear Daddy,
please leave me alone.
I've got no need for a rest at the stone.
Don't try to fool me, I call on your bluff.
Believe me, I've got worries enough.

Dear Daddy,
your genes have been passed on to me.
I guess I should be thankful to thee.
You gave me life, but a troubled mind.
Satisfaction is never easy to find.

Dear Daddy,
I hear your calling,
but you won't catch me when I'm falling.
'Cause ghosts are not for real,
they cannot see nor hear nor feel.

Dead Daddy,
I love you, I hate you.
For all that you never were.
Now please leave me alone.
I won't rest with you underneath the stone.

Such sadness and ambivalence. I cannot relate, as my Dad was a hero and all the world to me.
I so feel for anyone who never had a good father. Your emotions wring my heart.

You bring out so much of raw emotions from the bottom of your soul in you 'daddy' poems, my dearest friend.
This leaves me ashiver with emotions!
May God bless you!
(((Hugs)))
Love,
Zoya
