Love Of My Life

How can it be That in just one day All that I cherish Could be taken away? The one that I loved is gone. Because of that man I called 'dad;' I never thought I could feel this much pain. I never thought I could feel this bad. If it's not abandonment, then what is it? This feeling of utter dispair. I cry till my breath is uneven, And it seems that my dad doesn't care. My mom says things will get better, "Honey, everything is alright;" Then how come all I want to do, Is slit my throat with a knife? How can you say that you love me, But then back away at the same time? I know our relationship has problems, But before this, to those, you seemed blind. "Age is just a number" "skin is a color" None of that matters to me; You want me to be happy but I can't be, Cuz pain is all I see. My eyes burn with tears, My soul's been torn in two; I really hope you're happy, My pain is cuz of you. He's the only thing I wanted, This teenage boy named Sean; But now, thanks to my father, The love of my life is gone.i wrote this poem after something big happened. if ur my friend, you know what i mean... it really crushed me. i'm very angry at my father (As you can tell, cuz that's who it's aimed at, except i talk about sean in here some). but, ya know, it helped to vent.
