Daughter
20 years old finding
Out you're a father
In 9 short months
You'll meet your daughter
But that isn't enough
For you to bother
She grows up
Into her mothers face
Wondering why another man
Would want to take your place
She doesn't understand
Why you didn't want her
She knew you lied
When she was only four
Life takes it's toll
And destroys her mind
She has a dad now
But you still remain blind
He didn't have to care
Why is this fair
She's now a grown woman
Still she struggles to understand
She loves her dad
More than anyone can
He tells her he loves her
And is a true man
In the back of her head
You continue to haunt
Why wasn't she good enough
For you to want
Why would another man
Want to be her dad
What was so bad
About her for you to accept
You've lost your chance now
She's lost respect
You're nothing to her
Not even a man
Because you've made it clear
It's time for you to disappear

I know that in some ways,
I've disappointed you.
And that's why I can't ask you for help anymore.
You always made me feel stupid,
you always made me think I could've done better.
You always told me not to cry,
you said it isn't pretty.
I know that you're disappointed in me,
because I wanted to know who my mother was.
But just know that,
I'm disappointed in you, too
For keeping me from finding out.

Check out my brand new story on Wattpad called:
There's Something Wrong With Dad
My father has a tattoo that runs from his shoulder to his elbow on his right side; I never thought anything about it. He works, leaves for weeks at a time but comes back with pockets filled with money and bags filled with gold that he auctions off for thousands. I don't know what he does, but I never thought anything about it because he was able to sustain a suitable lifestyle for us. He had moments of anger yes, but he never abused us; he was a loving father. Even after the death of my mother, his caring character helped us move forward, and his idea of moving to a new hometown was for the best of our sanity. However, I could not help but notice the cold poisonous stare he would often give to my sister, and his brief moments of violence that he had trouble controlling. When I watched him beat a robber to an unidentifiable creature, grabbing his gun and continuously shooting him until there was nothing more than brain residue splattered all over the floor, those words in red flashed across my mind; There's something wrong with dad. I love him so much, but I can't help to think that he had something to do with the death of my mother. And I'm scared he's going to do it again. But to one of us.

father. you always call
to say nothing in particular. You ask what I'm doing or where I am and when the silence stretches like a lifetime between us I scramble to find questions to keep the conversation going. What I long to say most is, I understand this world broke you. It has been so hard on your feet. I don't blame you for not knowing how to remain soft with me. Sometimes I stay up thinking of all the places you are hurting which you'll never care to mention. I come from the same aching blood. From the same bone so desperate for attention I collapse in on myself. I am your daughter. I know the small talk is the only way you know how to tell me you love me. Cause it is the only way I know how to tell you.

you look just like your mother
i guess i do carry her tenderness well
you both have the same eyes
cause we are both exhausted
and the hands
we share the same wilting fingers
but that rage your mother doesn't wear that anger
you're right
this rage is the one thing
i get from my father

“I come up with the theory that my father started drinking again, because maybe he found out I’m gay.
Like if he could make everything else blurry,
maybe somehow I’d look straight.”

Graduation is two months away. I got accepted to ACM, but I want to join the military. I brought this up to my dad and he flipped out. He doesn't want his youngest daughter joining the military. He is afraid that I'll go overseas to fight, get lonely, and bring back a guy that I should have never met. So once again, I think I am going to give up my dreams to please my father.

In kindergarten, he wasn't even there to see me off.
She was there everyday.
In third grade, I believed all his lies, he was my favorite parent.
She was too bossy.
In sixth grade, he understood everything, he was my best friend.
She didn't understand anything.
In seventh grade, I figured it out, he's a fake.
She knew what was yet to come.
In ninth grade, his whole world flipped over.
She stood behind me.
In the next summer, he had no clue I tried to end my life.
She strived to keep me alive.
In tenth grade, I recieved my diagnosis. He said it doesn't exist.
She tried to understand the differences in people.
And here I am in eleventh grade, mad at myself for believing his lies for all too long.
Mad because I wasn't worth the truth, mad because I made a fake of him,
mad because he caused my mental disorders and he doesn't care.
Mad because I treated her so bad for so long, mad because it took me so long to figure out,
mad because bad things happen to good people, mad because she always had my back,
mad because she has always been my biggest supporter.
I'm so sorry Mom, I love you more than anything.
Don't leave me.

"1. When I walk into CVS, I know exactly where to find the
band-aids. Four years of tearing yourself open and you get used to
dragging yourself into your nearest drugstore with blood dripping
down your sleeve while the employees pretend not to notice and
smile at the wall behind you when they ring you up.
2. Swollen lips and sweaty “I love you’s” can make you feel
again but god I don’t want to feel anything if it means having to
sit there with my throat on fire while my ribs crack and splinter
every part of my f*cking body when he stops calling back.
3. I told my mother I wanted to fall in love and she told me she
would start planning my funeral.
4. Words get trapped inside my chest and their edges cut into my
heart. I wish I could just tell you how much I f*cking miss you. I
can’t stop bleeding.
5. My father always told me not to love someone with all of me
because they’ll slam the door one night and forget to come home
and they will take every fiber of my galactic being and leave me
with nothing but the darkness in-between the stars.
6. There are plenty of ways to kill yourself, stick a gun to the
back of your throat, fall asleep in the garage with the car on,
jump into a river and let the rock in your chest where your heart
used to be drag you to the bottom, smoke too many cigarettes, bleed
yourself dry. I think the most effective way is kissing someone
who’s name you will never be able to say without shaking.
7. You don’t drown in the ocean. You just become part of it. Your
hair dissolves into waves, your lips turn to salt, your eyes melt
into the sea. They say that drowning is peaceful but when I fell
into you water rushed into my ribcage it was just a lot of choking
and burning and thrashing and darkness.
8. When I told you I wanted you to f*ck me I didn’t mean f*ck me
over.
9. Maybe you should come over. Maybe I should change the locks. I
think I love you again.
10. I quit smoking because you could stop my hands from shaking
just as well as a pack of cheap cigarettes but you rot my insides
even worse."
-My parents keep asking why I haven’t gotten out of bed in two
weeks

Where were you, all those times you promised you'd be there for me?
Those times when I broke down, when I needed you most?
What were you doing when I had my first panic and anxiety attacks?
How about when I called and asked if we could talk, and you "didn't have time"?
Where were you when I hit my highest high, or my lowest low?
What about when I was admitted into "counselling" to help my self-harm addiction?
Where do you think you were when I tried to kill myself for the first time?
Or when I succeeded in dying, and they revived me?
Where were you?
What was so important that you couldn't visit me in the hospital?
Why weren't you there for me?
Why weren't you there when I broke several bones?
Was your hockey game more important than your injured son?
Every time I reached out, when I was weak, when I needed you, you weren't there.
Where were you!?
Here's the thing, though, Dad.
I don't break down anymore.
I haven't had a panic or anxiety attack in two years.
I have people who make time for me, now.
I have people who support me no matter where I stand.
I successfully "graduated" from the rehab centre, and I haven't hurt myself in 8 months.
I haven't attempted suicide in 3 years.
See, I'm glad they revived me.
My injuries - physical, mental, and emotional, have all healed.
All without your help.
I don't need you. Not anymore.
Even though my mother left you when I was an infant,
you walked out on me.
And, truth be told,
It's your loss, Dad.

kinda awkward when your hairdresser asks you what you're doing with your father on fathers day, and you don't have one...
