Father, please

Father, please

Listen to me!

Let me speak!

Stop yelling at me

Stop yelling at Mom

 

Father, please

Stop leaving the house so often

You act like you're going to another girl's house

Why take $50 with you?

Didn't mother say we're broke?

That was the reason why I created my Etsy business, wasn't it?

That is the reason why you started to eat cheap, stomach aching foods, wasn't it?

 

Father, please

Stop yelling at me

For the most useless reasons

Father, please

Don't play off your nasty words as a joke

It's clearly not a joke

You've been like this since 2018

 

Father, please

Allow me to speak

I want you to listen to my voice

Yet, it's the same voice you say you want to seize

 

Father, please

Stop saying you're "the adult"

You act like a child on a daily basis

Father, please

If you're an adult

Act like it

Ground me for A MONTH

Please <3

 

Father, please

Give me all the affection that Caesar gets

Don't let your anger release

Don't blame it all on me

Caesar is all you can see

You allow him to do anything

And he gets no discipline

Father, please

Tell me why is that so?

Father, please

Don't avoid the question

Father, please

Tell me

Is it because I'm not biological?

 

"Father", please

You're always sober

Remember to do things for us all

Within this house we hold

 

"Father", please

The closest thing is work

Is simple chores

I may sound like a hypocrite

But if you're so "depressed"

Because you can't legally get a job

Do chores

 

"Father" , please

See these scars?

They're from you and your voice

"Father", please

I know it's my fault

I understand

"Father", please

When are you going to stop yelling?

You raise your voice every time you see me

 

"Father", please

Stop.

I have to keep my father because my Mom wouldn't be happy living alone when I leave the house when I'm older.
