JUST LIKE MY OTHER BLOG WHICH IS ABOUT POETRY THIS IS ALSO ABOUT WORDS BUT IN A DIFFERENT WAY. AFTER MY DAD PAST AWAY IN 2007 I DECIDED TO WRITE HIM LETTERS WHEN I THOUGHT OF HIM. HOWEVER IT DIDN'T MAKE ME FEEL ANY BETTER COZ THE THEY JUST ENDED UP STACKED UNDER MY BED.POSTING THEM ON MY BLOG JUST FEELS MORE LIKE I AM 'SENDING' THEM TO HIM.

hi daddy...i miss you...mainly beacause i know if you were here i wouldnt be this way. i wouldnt be going mad. i wouldnt be i'll. to be frank, i want you back.
maybe you could talk to god and tell him that you didnt know we would turn out like this, that we couldnt handle you going, maybe you could beg him to let you come back.
we really cant do this without you, maybe we just dont want to. i know i dont. just want this to be over ...

A RHYME FOR DADDY

I always knew you were sent from heaven

but why did you have to return

you've made me so lonely

as its for you that my heart yearns

though its broken

its memory is still intact

it remembers all the good things we shared

sometimes it makes me react

in strange ways

sometimes I cry

sometimes I die a little more inside

sometimes I get lost

in my strange thoughts

sometimes I wanna learn to fly

so I can find you where you hide

since you've refused to be found

refused to respond even when I call out loud

it hurts me so bad

coz the tears I cry are not from my eyes but my soul

which becomes weaker everyday

any day that I miss you

and EVERY day I miss you

Dear daddy,


I hate you!

I can say that to you because hate is not the opposite of love and therefore I am not jeopadising how I feel about you. It also doesnt change the fact you are gone though. You just went, didnt say bye and just went. Nothing is the same since you've been gone. What hurts the most is that hating you has taken away my entire capability to love unconditionally. I am pretty indifferent to anything or anyone. My temper is a microscopic thread of fine silk...snaps with little effort.i dont bother to be angry though. Whilst my appearance seems calm I curse in my head. That is not anger, I sincerely detest, well, most things to be honest.

I just feel very alone without you. Despite the 13 siblings you left me I feel like I am without family. No1 to turn to when I am in need but many that will criticise when I fall. Dozens to tell me exactly what I should be when they haven't got a clue about who I am. Am not quite sure I know myself but I do know that I knew I was your daughter when you were here...and now I am quite sure I am fatherless but to them, that means nothing. Neither does the fact that I think about myself into illness and end up crying endlessly any time I as much as here your name. Writing this alone has got me tearing up and to be honest I am trying hard to keep the tears back so they dont soak my keyboard. That is my daily procedure trying to find excuses not to cry, putting on a brae face when honestly I am a coward. not even able to talk about her feelings but mostly for not coming with you. For crossing the road quick enough, for being careful when I cross a bridge...i am a coward for not dropping a knife in between my ribs and be with you

but you would understand, coz you couldn't stand up to death when he was approaching you, couldnt tell him u had a daughter that needs you more than anything or anyone in this world. That wouldnt have traded you for any amount of money, that adored you in everything and that would very quickly loose the will to live if you were to leave. But then again thats not your fault, its mine! You didnt know I loved you, how would you. I didnt know either until you were gone. But then it was too late. It will always be too late.


Love,


sweetie x
