Dear So Called Father
I Never Got To say My Peace
Dear So Called Father,
I never forgot to tell you
How bad you suck
When I was younger, I thought I had a better dad
No, such luck
My mom was my dad
She was always there for me
She made me the woman that I am today
You were never there
Not even one day
I barely knew you were, or where you would be
Except for time you missed in my life
I barely get a reaction from you
When I became someone’s wife
You care more about the random people you meet at a coffee shop
Rather than your own kin
I cannot believe I am related to you
But at least I do not have your eyes, your hair, or your chin
Goodbye from a daughter that never got to say her peace

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.
