9

By darkleprechaun

i remember you...
you used to tell me you loved me.
we used to wrestle together
and i wanted nothing more than to
be like my own personal superman

but as it turns out all your words were lies
all your actions simple deceptions and now
i know i was your cryptonite, you ran from me
you can't stop running... i wish i could...
i run from the pain every day... i come back to
it every night and sometimes it over takes my minds sight.

i tell myself i'm over it but i can't be, ever!
thanks for ruining my one chance at redemption.
thanks for taking everything that meant anything to me,
but most importantly, thank you for teaching me how not to
feel... sometimes i try and remember... too painful... nevermind not worth the cost so i shut it off again.
thanks dad.
