Father

Another door slammed in my face and like always your footsteps fade away. This time, though, I won\'t give chase to your hollow heart. 

Your promises are always empty, your love is only conditional. You have taught me to take my lonely and turn it into angry. 

Your stone cold words breathe into me and turn my heart to ice. No longer will I be naive and swallow all your lies. 

And every time you neglect my love, you add more wood to my fire, and every glare you throw my way only stacks my fury higher. 

So, when I look into your eyes all I see is red, and the hands you used to hold with care now shake at the thought of you instead. 

Boiling blood fills my body with every mention of your name. When they say I am your daughter, I find it hard to stay sane. 

Because you will never be the man that I will look up to. I cannot be your daughter if my father is not you.
