[hometext] => this was written before my last poem . and i have not posted it because at the time i felt that it was too personal. but now i guess i feel differently.
[bodytext] => i know that it would be wrong to blame you we're practically strangers it seemed impossible to forgive you those years ago i was young, stupid. but now i've grown into what i was meant to be i know i'll never be able to talk to you i'll never even be able to forget its because of you that i learned to abhor the silence the only thing that ever stood between you and me as i lay cowering in your presence it took my mother to tell me that you see yourself as a failure this is the only thing we may agree on i could care less if you failed at your job or anything else because you could have succeeded as a father but it was your choice to fail at that and it still is your choice to try and change and it saddens me that you'll always be a father and ill never be able to call you dad.
