Dad,
are you still flooded with pride
when you hear or speak my name?
there's certain feelings i tend to hide,
and i know you feel the same.
lying was never in my blood,
how'd this hate get in my heart?
i came here in search of love,
and now i'm not sure where to start.
i love you all so greatly,
please tell mom i miss her too,
but the reason i'm writing lately
is that i feel i've failed you.
- your pride & joy

and now i'm not sure where to start.
i love you all so greatly,
please tell mom i miss her too,
but the reason i'm writing lately
