Why did you go away daddy? but you were never really here from the beginning; your crazy head was never one which you'd have chosen, and i often wonder if my own inflections run their natural order, being the girl that was stamped with madness as her birthright, look how you went away daddy - a bipolar youth with slices of complacency and the feign of normal between the meds that the shrinks had custom mixed for you, wwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh daddy daddy i need your attention wwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh dadddy daddy please dont run off on your foreign binges anymore wwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh daddy look at me i'm a sucker for a man who tosses roses, and offers his piece and a moment's attention daddy look at what they hung on you - a bipolar youth and an altzheimers demise, somewhere there's a joke between, and i know behind your curtain call you've claimed the life this wretched world never lent you, daddy you leave me with a legacy of fear and madness, self doubt, and a love for the dramatic, as you blessed our city projects home with its ocean facing view, and made me love the smell of stinking fish, when i was christened by the blinking waves that wanderered through this imagaination, turning sand and water etchings that would sweep me in a moment's bittersweetnes,, to the nirvana in the seque where the sea and sky collide. ************************************ thanks for listening to the whining [This message has been edited by inkedgoddess (02-18-2005 11:37 PM).] |

Whine away! It's sad that he did not realize that he was leaving a goddess in the making! EA |
