Chapter 2- alone

Poem

I thought the one I have now was the one I had forever. By age six I learned my father is not my father. I was confused I was young.

By age ten he called and I didn't talk because I was having a birthday party. I hoped he would call later. He never did.

By age elven I was brave enough to email. He replied back but I didn't.

By age twelve I felt helpless and weak. I called I was scared to death not knowing what to expect. Mom tells me about him but I don't hear much.

He could have been there for me but he wasn't be could have chose to stay in my life but he didn't. Now I have a father that has been there for me for ten years. The one that's been there for ten years is my only father to me. The other person must not have cared.

It makes me feel alone and helpless and weak. Like a wasp in a hive of honey bees. Because I don't belong. I always feel as if I'm

Bella. I know exactly what you mean. For me it is the same story just different clowns. My biological father doesn't want to be in my life, then tells me that he wants me to talk to him more. Life is confusing and we as left daughters need to stay strong. I have tried so many times to connect with my biological dad but he just doesn't hold up his end. He has made me cry over him too many times. Your step father seems really great for being with you for 10 years. He stepped up in your life so I would make sure you show your love to him. I just don't understand why you feel alone because he isn't around. No matter what he did it doesn't do anything about you belonging to people. You belong to our group whether you like it or not.

Stepdad has always loved me and I feel closer to him than my b-dad because he's alway been there for me.

I haven't had a stepdad for very long but he is the best. I only wish I had him for the first 8 or 9 years were I had to call my biological father dad.
