A Fathers Love (or lack there of)

By considerately killing time

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You scream in my face Telling of your regrets Mostly of the day I was born I've endured your beatings Swallowed your insults Watched as you hospitalized The only mother I have Only to be left in your care To be put through the same thing To a lesser extent I've forgiven you and your hate I've wiped the bloody memories From my mind hoping to Gain some sort of respect For enduring your wrath As if knowing the pain You happily provide me Will earn your love and Prove to you somehow that I've become better for Going through this hell But as the years passed I've realized that your Tormenting me will never stop And as you watch tv Learning of girls being Raped and killed today You shake your head and sigh Turning a hateful eye and state That they should have been me Written November 6th, 2001 © on Nov 06 2001 04:13 AM PST   18 • 0 • 10
