Tuesday

i feel sort of sad
like i don't know where i fit in the world
i thought this solidarity made me strong
but i wonder if really it makes me weak
i remember my father crying on the phone asking
"i wonder if there is anyone out there for me"
what was i to say?
does he have any idea how much his absence effected my youth?
and still i want for him to be happy.
and i like being his friend
i hate when he gives me money
and i hate when he fusses over me (rarely happens)
but i like discussing things with him
and i really like that the other day when we talked and i began to disagree
he didn't fight me
he actually let me talk this time.
and it was really cool.
I'm really glad he's in my life

  1. It's so rewarding to forgive and promote happiness. So, destructive to hold a grudge and promote conflict.
    I like this. It's real.
