My bones are tired, Daddy I don't get enough sleep I don't eat as good as I should,daddy. Is that why you're so ashamed of me?
You know sometimes I sleep past noon, Daddy I drink lots of black coffee and I smoke like a chimney, Yes, I left the refrigerator door half open, Daddy What implications will that have onΒ Β me?
You know sometimes I want to rip out your throat, Daddy For all those things you said that were mean, Because I didn't fit in with your "proper family" image, I'm gonna make you just as vulnerable as I was, Daddy Why can't you just love me for me?
You know sometimes I want to bash in your teeth, Daddy I'm gonna make you realise that you made me this way.
I'm gonna rip your heart out the way you did mine, Daddy Go ahead and punish me forΒ Β that I'm your creation, I'm your "love"Daddy.
Grown up to be and do all those sick things you said that I would do Well last night I saw you sneak out your window With your jeans unzipped, daddy Are you as perfect as you seem?
Im neglected and broken, daddy, Because of the way you raised me to be, I'm going to **** you just the way that you **** me, daddy. Will you then be proud of me?
My bones are tired, daddy.
This is a very personal poem, it describes the relationship between my father and myself, and how I was raised in a family who didn't accept me.
