Dad

Contributed by hrpuffnstuff on Saturday, 17th July 2004 @ 06:42:54 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



You are the devil incarnate
You spew your evil sayings like sick
You used such powerful words
"I do this because i love you"
And I believed you

You are the devil incarnate
Your eyes you use to hypnotise
You pleaded with such tugging words
"Do you love me?"
And I trusted you

You are the Devil incarnate
You used your fork to separate me
From my mum and my childhood
"I do this because i love you"
And I believed you

You are the Devil incarnate
You used terror to control me
You used such threatening words
"You’ll kill your mum, send me to jail"
And I kept quiet

You are the Devil incarnate
You are evil, you are sick
All these years you have taunted me
"It was 50-50, you're to blame"
Now I don’t believe you

Wow! I have felt like that before but have not been able to express it that way. I hope things work out for you and I also hope that you do not blame God for what actions your dad has done.

Stitch already said what I was going to say. At least part of it....Awesome poem, my friend! I don't think I've seen you around here before, are you new? I would love to keep reading your work. You can send me a message if you need anything (I know I sent about five when I first came here trying to figure out exactly what the forums were all about....*blushes*). Welcome to the site!

Blessings
Love, Jenna

As for Archie's comment, I would find it hard not to blame God for what I understand to be the underlying atrocities perpetrated by your father, simply because he used God's authority to hide his crimes. That is despicable. Utterly so.

As for stoney1's comment - well, that's just insensitive and mindless - idiotic even.

My comment? Part incredulity that you managed to write something like this, and part anger that someone is capable of abuse of both a position of authority, and one's own children.

Needless to say I think its excellent, yet harrowing. Well done and welcome again - please excuse my earlier mindlessness- I'm hungover (again).

Thanks for sharing.

Bravo! and welcome to YPDC! This is an amazing piece. What an introduction! It is as if you threw open the YPDC door and stepped in with a shout of "Ladies and Gentlemen - I HAVE ARRIVED".

I am staggered by the emotion in this. It is seriously powerful and quite heartwrenching. I join the others in thanking you for sharing it.

Looking forward to reading more of your work,
SNM
