To My Dad

by Rachele   Jul 20, 2005


I used to feel so safe when you were always here,
Cause I knew that you were my Dad,
And you wouldn't let anything hurt me.

But I gotta tell you Dad.
I'm hurt.

You were the one who kept me protected.
Without you I feel so neglected.

I guess no one could really save me from myself.
When I'm the one who I'm mostly worried about.

You left me here to slowly die alone
And I gotta say, I miss you so.

Why couldn't you come home more often and
at least try to make the pain soften.

It really hurts me when you call me a freak.
I've tried to tell you, but all I do is weep.

I've felt like somewhere along the way
You've pushed me so far away.

I can't talk to you about the things I feel.
It's no wonder I don't feel real.

I love you to death Dad.
Believe me when I say it.
I just wish me and you could talk and sit.

We used to have such a good relationship,
but now I feel like I'm just hitting a wall of bricks.

    I understand what you're going through. I would recommend you reading my poem to my father... It's called "On The Road You Chose To Take." I love my parents too and wish they could listen more. But; sometimes, I just feel they don't know how to help me or give me the help I need. That I will need to seek it elsewhere, in which I did, and am currently doing. I am seeing a therapist specializing in Autism Spectrum Disorders, since she discovered, I had a social disorder, in which, makes me not know how to relate to others from my confusion and so forth.

    Again, I wish you the best luck with your father... You seem to love him very much. I love my father very much too, even though, the choices, he has taken.

    *hugs*
