But Dad, You Said..!

by Kayla Ellis   Jul 13, 2006


I'm lying on the floor tonight,
choking on my tears.
You said that you had loved us all.
for oh so many years.
For forever I have lived in fear,
and tonight...it's finally come.
You promised me you wouldn't leave,
but you now are gone.

It's time for me to say these things
and do it loud and clear.
Never, decent father of mine,
You've been my greatest fear.

You'd come home very late at night
by then I'd be in bed.
Somehow things were all my fault,
you'd beat me till i until I bled.

So now the time has come,
for me to say goodbye.
And no, not for you, would I believe in second tries.
So right now, please,
just lie down and die
