FATHER

When I was born,

you told me, I was special.

Beloved

A precious gift

A fine helper

Smart and beautiful

A source of great pride

Incredibly important

Irreplaceable.

LIAR!

When your grandson was born,

you told him he was special.

Beloved

A precious gift

A fine companion

Smart and fun

A source of great pride

Incredibly important

Irreplaceable

LIAR!

You have a new family now.

You tell them they are special.

Beloved

A precious gift

Fine companions

Smart and fun

A source of great pride

Incredibly important

Irreplaceable

More important than your daughter

who is always there for you.

More important than your grandson’s graduation.

More important than your grandson’s wedding.

More important than your grandson.

SHAME!

You don’t actually know what real love is.

I know I should pity you

but I just can't.

TRUTH!
