Tired

I’m am tired of trying to be the adult

In every situation we come across

You don’t step up to the plate

But you think you’re the boss.

 

Soon lies are used to cover lies

Your excuses don’t even make sense

I’m getting tired of all this

I am loosing my strength.

 

I don’t expect much from you at all

But still seem surprised when you don’t come through

Trying to see where the person I loved is hidden inside

Cause I would have never loved you.

 

Responsibilities to you aren’t priority

I’m left with this heavy load to bear

And the sad thing about it, you laugh

You really don’t care.

 

Trying to retrace my foot steps

Figuring out what I did to make you treat me this way

I’m lost, and I can’t

It was you that hurt me each and everyday.

 

I quite fighting loves battle with you

A very long time ago

But you can’t even be cordial

And every reply from you is no.

 

I hope that soon you realize

Its not me that your hurting in the end

Its your self and your daughter

A relationship you will have to try and mend.

 

She may be a little girl

But she see the pain you cause

And notices the void of father hood

And how you put her love on pause.

 

She understands love what love looks like

Because I show her each and everyday

And with or without you “daddy”

We will be okay.

Love it!!!......... This one is in my Faves! ......:-)

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
