Just to Let You Know MAG
Your butchering words
In the beginning
Went through my head
As a child who listens
To every word you say
Your constant sarcasm
Your words which
I thought were the truth
The never giving up
Just to let you know, Dad
Those butchering words
To me are now worthless
For I know now
It was only your sickness

I love this poem so much because it is so true.I love the way you expressed the way you feel about your father,in such short words.My father and I have never been close.I ty to have fun with him because everybody wants me to.Not because i want to,if it was up to me I would have nothing to do with my dad.

I always felt the same exact way about my father. I always let it get to me. I'm not about to tell you to forgive and forget, becaue I don't know you. Good poem.
p.s.-my dad died yesterday. the last thing I said to him, was I hate you.

I know what its like...like you said...fathers and mothers who aren't there pretend for a moment. My mum is sort of like that...but I have a step mom who raised me and she's been there for me
