Ties That Bind

a little mad

Your parent is not a parent
Just a thief in the night
Who are you to speak
When you were nowhere insight
Throwing judgments
Placing the blame
You aren’t happy
Unless there is someone else to blame.
*
Where were you
When I was growing old
Who’s hand did I have to hold
What makes you better
You weren’t there
But that is fine
With him I never needed you there
*
Ask and you shall receive
I know what I see
You were never there
Yet you always lectured me
Give up your games
I’m cutting the strings
Giving up this fight
*
Man who raised me
Where were you
Nowhere around
Don’t deny the truth
Give up your games
I won’t be the one to play
*
I’ll write what I want
Everything is the truth
But it doesn’t matter
It never concerned you
I’ll say what I want
It’s not a sin
Give up the game
I won’t give in.
*
Your parent is not a parent
Just a thief in the nigh
Who are you to speak
When you were nowhere insight
Throwing judgments
Placing the blame
You aren’t happy
Unless there is someone else to blame.

Mindy Ondo i hope you r not speaking of your father because your other parent is not the model parent either just a theif in the night and a druggie themselves you r not the only one who lost there child just ask and you shall receive the answers u need not saying this to hurt u but u shouldnt trash one parent without knowing all the ugly little tales on all 3 of them........(biological Aunt refering to me calling my stepdad my daddy)

You don't like my poetry DON'T READ IT! I don't care what you think. I am going to say what I want. And love who I want. Next time you talk about my daddy like you did, you will be deleted and blocked (my reply)

Anyone can produce a child, it takes a real parent to actually raise them and be there for them.
