A Poem For My Father

You are my father how could you not protect me or teach me anything You were supposed to be there for me through everything It makes me sad that you won't be there for your oldest daughter I just pray that you're blessed in the name of the Holy Father No matter how hard I try to have a relationship with you You just turn away like many other people do I'm sad, I'm hurt, but do you care ... NO!!!! I'll just hang my head and weap to my soul

Your comes right through each word. Hang tough. I've been there. My mom committed suicide when I was going and my dad died from cancer the next year. Poetry helped me to disspell the anger and depression. It does get better.
