"it didnt give me a new childhood with a new dad"
bonding over being lost but not finding solace in the sharing
"it didnt make him a better father 18 years sooner"
do you ever think of your words and how they broke someone?
im apathetically everything-that-i-am, listless and solitary
i know im disappointing. i know ive always been a let-down.
i could have been so many things so enthusiastically but,
in anticipation of the credit i thought i deserved, all i had
was pride, lost potential, fried eyes, and burnt-out lungs.
there were years that felt like hundreds
i remember being unlimited and loving
there were days that felt like home
i remember being safe and alive
