Not supposed to talk to you
and now I know why
The thought of simply talking
to you makes me want to die
You condemn me for all my shortcomings
and things that aren't true
Today has been a day that
I will always come to rue.
I don't think you were meant
to be a father, I really don't
And I'm never going to speak
to you again, I really won't
You don't imply to your kids
that they're not good enough
all the while being drunk
On you I'm gonna have to be tough
I have a wonderful husband and kids
I've lived most of my life without you
I'll forgive you but I won't forget
The horrible things you said that were untrue.

I totally understand what you are saying. Parents have to understand that their children will feel no greater hurt than the betrayal of the parent abusing them physically or mentally. Your poem is the person shaking their fist and letting the abuser know they are done with their bad behavior. Good to get it off your chest with this poem! I am so happy for you knowing that you have a great life, having done so by becoming strong! Merry Merry Christmas! I bet your household will be a lot of good crazy fun!
Yes, Christmas is better already! He was an abuser and now I can say for sure he is finally out of my life and I'm much happier. Thank you for all your kind words, dear friend. I really appreciate them!
Oh, thanks for letting me know you are fine😀You are a dear friend too😀
Ohhhhhhhhhh CHRIS the pain in this poem made me cry. Because God loves you as His Child he has given you a Lovely Husband and some lovely Friends on MPS to make you understand there are some lovely MEN on this Planet. My DAD is a lovely Man and the only (deserved ) spankings I got were from my MOM ! One day (if I get my skates on !) I hope to be the Best Dad in the World. Thanks for caring and sharing CHRIS ~ You are Wonderful and just the sort of Daughter I would love to have ! Big Spiritual Christmas HUGS ~ TU AMIGO DEL ESPIRITO DE NATIVIDAD ~ BRIAN
