In Her Father’s Eyes
She learned to walk beneath his gaze, Through stumbling steps and sunny days. His hands held hers, both small and wide — A fortress built where dreams reside. He traced the sky to teach her stars, Named every light from Earth to Mars. And when her fears would start to grow, He’d whisper words she’d always know. A father’s love needs no grand...

-Boogeyman-
The thought is a terror when alone and you feel weak. Sometimes, the stakes are so high, for fear you dare not speak. Neither bet your honest dollar it will not enter through that door; Its arrival will unravel everything, ending your lives if nothing more. It's a fearsome being; such a despicable thing. It's my dad,...

The Trial
Pacing in an empty room, I'm sick, and tired of fighting This unyielding evil Who makes his case To torment our family And as the minutes turn to hours, I feel the force of cruel waves Crashing against the guiltless shore, As he tries to drown The truth in lies And so I say a silent prayer, Hoping against hope For an end To an endless storm I pray...

Parental Alienation, An Anguished Father

Fledglings in parental nest
Way-lost as if we live in hoary past-- In epics of hist’ry poets have sung, In portraits of culture, hoisted on mast, Still, where are old glories, save on the tongue? One knows of few people, east bound or west, That live so long, linger on what had been-- Fledglings as if...

The child who lacks a parent’s love Feels a hurt that’s hard to get rid of. Parents who their offspring reject, were themselves by rejection wrecked. They could not...
