Father

Father

Father! You and I didn't always agree
I might have charged blindly
But its you who drove me angry
Watching me grow with scars on this body
Where were you before this monster grew too strongly?

Father! I am not here to argue
Somethings we can't redo
So don't ask me why I choose red over blue!
Angels might not love me like they do you!
Pointing fingers, my life isn't for you to preview

Father! If you really care
Why did you even start the dare?
Too many demons for me to bare
I might not have played by your rules but I played fair!
And now its me who doesn't really give a care!

Author's Note

Thanks for the typo Micheal!

You clearly demonstrate why I wouldn't ever use dad and father as interchangeable. You've defiantly described a father. Dads are much more supportive and caring, at least to me. I've had both in my life. A dad who guided me and helped me when things got hard, and the father who tried to break me.

Very well said my dear.

I agree with Katseye (see below). The fact that you use father instead of dad speaks volume. But it is a great piece because first one can sense the intense feelings underneath the words, and yet, second, the piece is fluent and comfortable to read! You do know to express yourself!
