To Daddy

By Cinn

To kill you would be pleasure,
But just to have you gone...
That's all I really want;

You don't understand anything,
And frankly I don't want you to,
I just want you to leave,
Forever;

I don't want to talk to you,
But I really have no choice,
You are always there,
I can't seam to shake you,
But this you will never understand,
Unless you figure it out;

But let's face it,
If you were to figue it out,
You would have long ago;

You'll just wonder why I never talk,
Why I never come up for Christmas,
Why I never ask fo you when I call,
And you'll never know,
Because I really do,
Hate you that much.

    I used to feel similarly once, im glad i don't anymore, the excess drama is the last thing i need, but i can appreciate this a lot just keep on venting those feelings ~Dawn

    ...I can understand that...sometimes it's just easier to display the rage rather than the reason...anything to get it out...well written; it saddens me to have you feel this way, but some things we cannot interfere in... -Darun Scholar

  • A former member wrote: Love the opening line.... I can relate to this alot, though its not my Father who I wish were gone..... Scholar

  • A former member wrote: But why? I mean I got the rage thing. Good solid rage in this poem...but no real deifinion or reason for the rage. Then again...if it's too personal then I can understand that too. Scholar

    if i were to put the definition the why it would take more than 2 days to read - anything you could possibly think of is probably the reason.

  • A former member wrote: Ahh...I can understand that. I feel that way about some relationships I've been in. It would take days to describe every thing wrong that they did to me. And I don't feel they're even worth the energy...

  • A former member wrote: Like I said though...you have some good solid rage in this. Well written.
