He

by Nicole Heppner   Mar 22, 2006


There's this guy
He never smiles
At least not around me anyway
He never has a good
Thing to say about anything
He puts me down
For just about everything I do
And he makes me cry
I don't think he understands
That I do what I can
To make him smile, be happy
He says I'm a mistake
But it's not my fault
I ruined his life, I'm sorry
I didn't know being born was a crime!
He says that I'm lazy
But I got it from him
He says I'm always wrong
But he's never right
He thinks he is God
Not quite!
I don't know why I even bother
He won't listen
Too stubborn to even try
I'm alto like him
Stubborn myself but not proud
I've watched him closely
He's like a tornado
Destroying everything in his path
Hurting me in his wild angry winds
You ask, how can one man
With human blood
And "supposedly" a heart
Be so powerfully hurtful?
Ask him
I used to call him daddy.
