The other Father

Angel Williams 1977 (Boston)



Didn't love u until u got cancer but u were a good father figure in my life and a good husband to mother but why no affection why no emotion why however u did with your actions but i have to ask I'm an easy target I hurt easy and you knew how to do that very well emotionally and verbally why did it make u feel better did it give u power as a man I had to leave so you would stop you would always say your welcome to come back never apologized for your wrongs but all is forgiven
