Perhaps I should Not go into details So I won't. Just that . . . In six months My father did more damage to me. Than my entire Rest of my life Combined. Thank God he did not raise me. I would have perished. Only that six months that still rages like a forest fire In the calm forest Where I abide. We all have problems With our parents But he is very perverse By anyone's standards. How many people Start a *** cult?   And then invite their 11 year old daughter To come visit? So I left my mother Who had sole custody. What a bad mistake. I was only eleven. Mistakes are allowed. Gullibility is expected. "Grooming" is not recognized, for what it is.   I only hang on now Based upon the Magnetism Of genes shared. A few emails per month He in total denial But that's not rare. I guess it's best To not say anything else. There is too much to say. And it happened Forty years ago. I have found new fathers In my life. That's good enough. At my age I am not seeking out any fathers But did seek them out For two decades. That's over with. ~Arianna Elise Darshani

Our Fathers
