Father X
Another letter comes in the mail
Its stamp is upside down
On purpose, I know you as I know myself
I can't stand it
I hate how we're so much alike.

Another phone call,
Your mock-cheery voice on the line
Oozing sarcasm
Talking of trivialities
I hate being of your blood.

Another visit.
Every time you hug me I feel the cigarettes in your pocket
They hurt me, you hurt me
Everything you do hurts me.

Leave me alone.
You complicate me.
I'm afraid to love you.





I couldn't really think of a good title, but oh well. The confusing letter I got from my father today inspired me to write this. He and I have a, um, bad relationship.
