What a father!!

RSS

By X_LUCY_INNES_X

I'll never forget the person, who made my body weak Who always thought he was right, and never let me speak I'll never forget the father, who hid me away out of sight, And I'll never forget how he scared me, how he gave me such a fright I'll never forget the insults and the names And how he always looked so deeply ashamed I'll always remember the heartache every time he spoke And how hurting me so badly, to him was just a joke I'll never forget the loneliness or how he made me feel How hard I tried to show him, that I had feelings, I was real I never was his daughter, I never was his pride I was nothing special, so I was told to hide He told me I was a failure, no good, would never succeed And although you couldn't see the wounds, inside I would always bleed He shouted and criticized what I did, until I'd given up and hid!

Fathers can do alot of damage to both men and women since men are knot allowed the luxury of communicating openly to their loved ones and seems like Criticism fits the Bill the best...?
