Sins of the Father
Always heard the saying
never thought anything about it
you are immune, invisible, untouchable
Then, it hits...
**** !
I'm a target,
of my fathers' sins
Years an years of crap piled up
it spills and spills and spills
I'm caught up in the foul mists
the shadowy clouds, the rage...
can't stay adrift
Pulling with all the might of a warrior
I fight
Dragged left -
shifted right
Tongues wag; teeth gnash; eyes clash;
words flow, like a *****, nasty blow...
Father knows of his sins; yet, he lets me sink
he is not immune to the ills
Lets me float - no hope
So, I stay away. Forgiveness yes,
Trust no. Hurt, yes.
This was a case of Step mother, step sisters, and verbal abuse with the father not caring to say anything
