Come in and tell me hi!
Can't you just this once?
This one time, aknowledge my exsistence.
I'm hiding my sadness on the inside.
Crying inwardly,
hoping I dont give you the pleasure of seeing my pain.
Makes you too happy to know you are the creator of my misery.
How can you look me in the eyes and say those words?
You love me, now...sure,
while I do everything you say without a hint of hesitation. So afraid and lonely.
No other choice.
But later, when something's not right, you dont hesitate to come at me with your fists ready as ever.
Are you proud?
You've taught me to hate the words, 'I love you'.
Is this what love is?
Responding to everyone in the room, but glancing recklessly over me?
Giving everyone a loving hug and a gentle kiss on the cheek, but hitting me with nothing more then a "why didnt you..." or a "you stupid son of a...".
Is that what love is?
Love, I hate the word. Its cruelty hits me harder then any blow he may throw at me.
I hurt. Can't you see it?
It's not like I mask my emotions.
I need you!
I dont need a bully.
I dont need to "learn a lesson"
I just need...my dad.

Sonnie,
This makes me ache inside.
Though there are other loves in your life, the void you feel between you and you dad, can't be filled by my or Mo's love. I wish it could. All I can say is that I care for you so much. And this brings me to tears.

Lexy..I love you so much. Your my strength. and although there is that void, you do fill a huge part of my life. And the love you and J-mo both give me is enough to last a lifetime. Thank you though. I love you with my whole heart.

I need my dad too. He was never there for me either, only to hurt me.

I feel a lot from this poem and I'm glad you wrote it. If this is true then I'm sorry that this is happening to you. Never think that you're alone.
