For my Father

We diddn't send you a Father's Day card,
but what did you expect?
a big kiss and hug?
No, you demanded respect.

after all those years,
when we didn't see you,
you come back into our lives
and think that we love you too.

you have hurt me far to much,
for me to feel anything but hate.
you should have done this years ago,
but, Dad, you are far too late!!!!
