My Dad



I will always love and hate this man
He made me become what I am
In my mind I hate him
But in my heart I love him
He curses all day
And despises me in everyway
He always screams and is never calm
He thinks he has all the answers on his palm
And I know one day I will go away and make way
NO screaming or cursing only rearranging
My life in everyway
I will go somewhere no one can retrace
They can follow me but they have to keep up with my pace
But when he dies I will not survive
Knowing he's gone I won't be able to revive
So I would like to let him know all this
And hope he won't get pissed
This is for him forever we may win
I will love you forever even after the day we are not together
