[hometext] => This poem is the first one that I have ever written and I plan on giving it to my father for his Christmas present
[bodytext] => You always told me you'd be there The truth is you barely cared But I don't understand why Why did u lie and act so sly? Why did you put the mask on? Didn't it seem wrong? Many promises were broken The whole time I kept my heart open I put all my trust in you And what did you do? You broke my heart Pulled it out and ripped it apart I saw a lot of good in you Those feelings are over due I needed your assistance All I felt was resistance Now I question my existence How come you never helped me? You hurt me so badly Remember the 2nd grade classroom play? Oh, you forgot, you were drunk all day But I forgave that Remember the baseball game? You promised to take me to the ball park I sat at home and waited until dark But I forgave that What about the Super Bowl? I was on a roll! I guessed the closest score But what was the money used for? You kept it and never gave it to me You needed to pay bills apparantly How come mom was never paid? Aren't you sick of being in debt and afraid? Do you realize ur not the only one with a struggle? I go through tough s*** too and you make it double Stop giving everybody else the blame Stop treating your life like a game You say you love me and everything But how hard is it to give me a ring? I can predict what you are going to do Soon I'll have my license and a car You'll beg for a ride and say, "I love you" But hell no I'm not bringin you to the bar Right now I can't even think straight The only feeling I have is hate You ***** me off so bad All the stupid s*** you have done Why do you have to be such a horrible dad? For every problem you make an excuse and run The reason I'm writing this is so you understand how I feel I hope and I pray so much that you will be a man and get real But the chances of that are slim And the light of your life is dim For now thats all I have to say I sure hope this can end in a better way [comments] => 4 [counter] => 878 [topic] => 6 [informant] => baum [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 31 [ratings] => 7 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
