Web Of Insanity

I sit by the window and wait for you, but you never show up. I gave you a call to see if you're okay, but the operator says your numbers changed, none of them are now the same. What am I suppose to do daddy? You promised you'd come, but you won't even show, to me you're just a coward and a deadbeat dad. You! You manipulated me into thinking you changed, but we all know you haven't. You had my mind spinning images of us actually becoming a family, but those dreams were squashed. You made me think things would get better, but you only made things worse, now I'm left with what I hoped would be, but I now know could never be... in my web of insanity.

Know a person for who they really are. Find a work around. When he shows up make room for happiness when he makes the time for you.

Usually letting a person know how, wrong they are or how bad they have been, keeps them in that frame of mind and it's hard to change when it's what they see all the time. Let him know how you feel about the past and about the hurt we you are in a good place, when you can say it with a smile.

We do not have control over the actions of others, but we have control over ourselves. Ta'Shandra control your own happiness :)

Terrific story, short but straight to the point. I felt your sadness, your anger, and your pain.

How sad. A case of love, trust, and faith abused. Some people are so selfish they can't even realize how much they're hurting others

Children will accept their parents failings to a point, and then the web breaks and the promises made hold no meanings anymore.

I am a single father to my daughter, her mother is like the father in your write but my daughter has had enough.

Such a perfect metaphor and image you spin here. The emotion you caress the reader with is just stunning.

I really empathize with this as I too, have a strained relationship with on of my parents. I'm glad though that you have a healthy outlet to help you deal with all the confusion and insanity. Let it out, and let yourself move on.

there is so much depth to the human condition~ your attempt to weave it in a spider's web is admirable~wow!

its so sad when you're waiting for that call and it doesn't come - such an emotional write - you write the woe of humanity in glistening ink - the web of insanity spread across the page
