My other father... for Merve Locked away in my mind No chance of release Trapped in my room Only place I found peace Too broken to speak But unable to weep Tears locked frozen Doors won't open Hurt buried under heart raging thunder Then you were around Spoiling my view I wanted my daddy I didn't ask for you Sitting by my mum Holding her hand Churned up my stomach Too young to understand Then one day I felt a Small love from within You never gave up You never gave in Surly this meant that- Could it really be That I wasn't unlovable Because you loved me You were there for the darkest long years of my life Me staring at my reflection Gripping the knife I'm so grateful to you that you stayed by my side I think had you not been I would surly have died

My other father... for Merve Locked away in my mind No chance of release Trapped in my room Only place I found peace Too broken to speak But unable to weep Tears locked frozen Doors won't open Hurt buried under heart raging thunder Then you were around Spoiling my view I wanted my daddy I didn't ask for you Sitting by my mum Holding her hand Churned up my stomach Too young to understand Then one day I felt a Small love from within You never gave up You never gave in Surly this meant that- Could it really be That I wasn't unlovable Because you loved me You were there for the darkest long years of my life Me staring at my reflection Gripping the knife I'm so grateful to you that you stayed by my side I think had you not been I would surly have died
My step dad arrived when I was 14... my dad walked out when I was 11... my step dad saved my life. No words can express my gratitude.
