Poem

How do you still not know me?
After all the years of taking care of me
You were my parent half of my life
And you've always loved me very deeply

I appreciate all the presents and favors
I appreciate how you saved my family from death
And I acknowledge that without you,
I never would've taken a breath

Yet, you try to change me over and over
Even though I am unbreakable
You always tried to tear me from my dreams
Yet I have always been unshakable

My dream is to let the world hear my voice
You always tell me it is unattainable
You try to tell me what career I should take
Do you really think I am trainable?

I have tried to bring my pain
Into the light with notes upon notes
You read them and dismissed them
It's as if you thought they were anecdotes

My feelings are real, and I always wonder
How do you not see my pain when you tell me I can't
I hear it every day in many different forms
I might as well have been born an ant

You crush me and my hopes
By telling me they're silly thoughts
I can't open up to you, I wish I could
But just meeting your stare has my stomach in knots

I wish you would love me and accept me
That's exactly what a grandfather should be
But you let one question stir in my head,
How do you still not know me?
