Christmas letter to Dad.

by loony

I was talking to my friends these days And they were worried about what gifts they should buy their dads And it hit me that I never worried about this, Dad, I never had the chance to think about buying you a gift and I tried to imagine what would I buy for you this Christmas but thing is I never go to know you, Dad, I never got to know what you liked, what you wanted in this life I never got to know you outside the demons that you were carrying around I never knew as a child how bad it was for you to survive and I loved you and I could not see you, Dad and I never had the chance to think about what gift would bring some joy in you heart and now I'm furios, Dad, I'm furious because now I am old enough and if I had a chance, I could see you, I could hear you And I'm furious because I am old enough and I don't have to worry about buying you a gift I'm furious because I am old enough And I still don't know what you want for Christmas.

I never thought I'd be back here, it's been a while, but I really felt like leaving this somewhere.
