Dear Dad
Dear Dad,
Are you upset with me, because I grew up wrong?
Are you upset that I am Mentally ill?
You haven't spoken to me in so long.
But I love you, still.
Are you mad that I couldn't give you the daughter you dreamed of?
Are you mad that I can't go home?
You yelled at me because I said I didn't feel loved.
Your house isn't my home.
But I love you, still.
Do you hate me because of your wife?
Do you hate me because I can't live with you?
Do you even want me in your life?
I don't know what to do.
But I love you still...
Do you love me?
