To my "father".
You were never there for me nor, have
you ever been. You were supposed to be,
though. But your priorities were not your
child, for they were nothing but yourself.
You've messed up, and I know none
of it was my fault. Although none
is my fault, I still hurt from the times
you weren't there to help mom tuck
me in at night. I still hurt from
the times where you didn't care, and I
still hurt from the times that you
never called. My heart is broken because
of you, and I didn't even do anything
wrong to you. I was so young that
I couldn't have done anything wrong.
But leaving at such a young age
causes a lifetime of hurt and
left me with nothing but a broken
heart.
