I tried to resurrect you in every thought I had
I tried to connect through words on a notepad
I have tried to let go of the sad
I tried every coping mechanism I had
...you weren't even a good dad...

I never published this poem but in keeping with the fad:

What am I becoming
I've spent many years running
Into dark corners where I was alone
All I ever wanted was a home
You never gave me your eyes or ears
You did not cry when I shed tears
Upon the door of your heart I knocked
I tried to speak to you and you looked shocked
You then pointed at the horizon and said march off
Pretty soon I'll have had enough
You mocked me when I fell and looked on
One day you'll call for me and I'll be gone

here's to all the dead dads, all amature fathers, we survived because, before us, they survived.
