her father

october.24.2002

her father never can much,
that's all there is to say.
but even thought he left her,
he never went away.

the scars that he has left her,
she never can forget.
the mass of all the torture,
the seeds of hate have set.

she bleeds inside and out,
and cursed all that she knows.
for every passing breath,
her pain and anger grows.

will she learn to love,
though it was never shown?
will she learn to laugh,
though tears are all she's known?

questions all I have,
but i pray the answers yes.
he father never loved her,
but i did, I must confess.
