Father

F Forever wondering what I did that made me not good enough A An after thought that's what I felt I was T Time does not heal all wounds H Hopes of one day being good enough E Everything I learned about lying and cheating I first learned from you R Regrets I wonder if you have any. I know I have plenty

Ouch. You are more than enough. Some are equipped to see that kind of beauty.

I believe once you get out from under all that hurt, you are going to blossom into a beautiful poet, Tracey. You gotta admit, some people just weren't meant to be parents, the only problem is, nobody ever told them.
