It's me Dad! Did you Forget?
2015: “Hey Mama, I just talked to daddy! He said he’s coming to see me in May, I hope it is true this time because I’m still waiting for my gift from last Christmas.”
2017: “Mommy, has daddy called you yet? He wants to come get me for the summer. He hasn’t answered any of my texts about that though…”
2019: Mom, He said that he was going to finally move back here… Should I believe him?
2021: “Mom… Why doesn’t he want me anymore?”
It hurts, celebrating Father’s day through a phone or sending me $300 on my birthday doesn’t make our relationship well known.
I have outgrown… from all of your lies
and to the past, I have forgave. But, please listen because I will have no one to truly lift me up as you lay in your grave, so don’t let this time run out, you have to see who I have become.
My feelings are like a gun trying to release every bullet I have in me or like a drum trying and trying to stay on beat..
My mom apologizes whenever a tear runs down,
I hope you can understand that I need YOU to fix my crown.
