Father Figure

He sits there patiently waiting always apologizing but never showing the true feelings he is hiding he acts like he is one with us but he couldn't be further away every day we say hello how are you but never giving a true answer we grow into a routine school work dinner groan sleep repeat again and again what has this life become does he even see me anymore even now that life's chaotic we go down the dark hallways I can't tell who I'm looking at Is it him or is it a stranger looking back at me and saying I love you
