Something  about this I don't like. Hmmm.
-----------------------------------------------

I'm not coming down from a high
I'm enjoy life and not changing my way
Don't move those lips
For ratty words all you got to say

We've been through it once
Now here we're again
Not letting ya in for any price
Say you've changed. Since when?

Don't worry I'm burning bridges
Going from shore to shore
Quit your nagging pleads
Your such a bore

Do your dirty words come out to play
where your groveling and feeling hurt?
Throw your daggers all you want
Your still playing in the dirt

Don't worry now my armors on its high
I'm not being dragged into this game
Breaking away from you is simple
Wish you could feel the same

Don't flatter me with inadequate lies
Quit reliving those emotions long dead
For I'm doing just fine
Got my armor built up. Armed with a heart of led

wow. this one is pretty brutal. whoever inspired you to write this should feel very sorry for whatever they did, if anything at all.

beautiful writing though.

I am that I am,
And that makes it me.
I float like a rock
But I sting like a bee.

Wish I could find love.. But all I find these days are superficial fish in shallow waters.

As a parent, it hurt me to know this is about your father. I do not even attempt to assume to know anything about your relationship. I do; however, know that parents sometimes say things we later regret. I do hope that you have not been "burning bridges".
As for the poetry, achingly haunting.

I can understand that some parents regret some of the things they say and do. I can respect that. But one someone doesn't acknowledge their wrong doing. It isn't right. My father and I, I don't think, will never have a relationship like some have hoped. But thank you for reading.

I can relate strongly to you on this one. I'm sorry it has to be that way. Don't let him get you down.
Good write, very powerful.

This is a very strong poem.
I understand where you are coming from its always hard when you don't feel a parents love.

I wish you all the best
Michelle
