Dad

All i ever did was love you daddy
why do you hate me so much
i can see the way you look at me
all i see is disgust
you play and mess with carla*
but she was always your little princess
how much i want sum of that love
but i know i cant have it
you watch football and bond with keith*
take him to the park
introduce him as "my son"
with so much pride
and then theres me
who the only conversation you make
is an arguement
shouting that im not good enough
how i want your approval
how i just want a simple hug
how i want you to say "im proud of you"
how i want you to say "i love you"
