Abused

In my life all you ever gave was pain and
Saddiness. Killing all my dreams of a future
Never giving me any encouragement .
Only leaving bruises and scares on me.
Always thinking I needed you in my life just
Because you helped give me life
What kind of life did you give me? When all
The words and actions showed me no love.
Always leaving me to feel anger towards the
World . So thanks for nothing . God has given
Me more love and strength then you ever did
As a father. I thank God everyday for all the people
He gave me to show me the love you never did.
