![]() daddy wasn't thereA Poem by I am renee
He wasn't there for me physically, mentally and emotionally
"he would come visit me every now and then but I was always with my mom who couldn't stand me" So she sent me away to leave with my father because I wasn't acting reckless "I got suspended from school, I got kicked out of public places, I even got arrested once" I got worse when I was with my dad My actions weren't me "It was my desperate cry for love from my father" October 3rd was the first day I spent time with him "the best day of my life" We watched movies, ate ice cream, and went out to eat" At 9:00pm my dad got a call from his job (he thought I was sleeping but I heard the whole conversation as he put the phone of speaker) Job: we need you to come in Dad: I have my daughter and no one else is here to watch her Job: we need you man Dad: ok He left without saying goodbye or I love you I was only 7 and I didn't know what to do so I laid back on the couch and drifted off to sleep 11:00pm I heard knocks at the door I saw nothing when I looked out the window so I opened the mail slide and I asked who was there (pure silence) I opened the door to find myself in my dad's room "I tried to get out of bed but I couldn't feel my hands or my feet" I was tied up to the bed I heard footsteps so I closed my eyes and held my breathe "I was being stripped and I opened my eyes and saw my next door neighbor taking his clothes off" WHERE IS MY FATHER? I was praying to god he would come home I should have never opened the door He was laughing while I was screaming and kicking "the last thing I remember is my horrifying rape" I don't know why "I'm so afraid to go back to his house" My father neglected me as a child so he could go to work © 2014 I am renee |
