A daughters grief

Refuse my existence, my heart, my pain
refuse the cries that prove me insane.
Tis this you taught as early as two
that I was not wanted nor loved by you.

Your heart is cold, unfeeling and callous
a heart filled with contempt, fear and malice.
So why do I try to be a good daughter,
when you have me so sweetly prepared
for the slaughter.

Just like the bull who's time has now come
to be laid to the blade,
you slice my throat with the choices you've made.

Though you are cruel and without care
I leave this thought for you to bare.

Heaven is real and God is your judge
I forgive you dad I hold no grudge.

May God have mercy upon your death
That he will let you enter His rest.

i can understand exactly what you mean, my father is the same way. but unlike you i can't say that i forgive him. i wish i could, but i can't. i however agree, i hope God has mercy on his soul cause he's sure as hell going to need it. very well written. you did a awesome job!

take the sadness and pain from the past have its funeral and leave it there entombed. Its time to move on.

This poem makes my heart weep. Compassion and forgiveness are among the greatest of humanity's gifts. Well done

A very sad poem, Po. It made me think of a person who mistreated me for years, I broke free from their grasp. I have been free from them for about 5 years and the feeling of being free is good. I could feel your pain as I read your poem.

Damn pg! By the time I finished reading the first paragraph, I couldn't believe what I read. I had to read it again before preceding with the rest. I'm sorry babe. This was not made up. I feel for the hurt you must feel.

Yes this is a true one for me but God has done major healing there. So I'm good!!

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
