I love you more than I love myself.

I grew up in the roughest places
My mom used to take me to lakes.
It was her favorite place to be, so was mine.
I wish I stayed in line
Like she said.
"Stay in line so you won't be like your dad."
I crossed that line far,
Now I'm a bad father.
I let their own wife and child die
Like if it was a fly .
I cry in the rain,
To let out the pain I have inside me.
I hated being seen weak,
I'm dropping water like a leak
In a sink.
Drip drip.
That's the sound of the blood,
The sound of rain.
I could never hear rain the same,
I can hear her pain
Both of their pain.
I gave them that storm.
Rain.
Thunder.
|
I'm hoping the sun would start shining,
So they would come flying
Back to me.

I look side to side,
Up and down.
I look everywhere.
Daddy is still not here.
I wish I could hear
his voice
or feel his touch.
I eat my lunch
Without my daddy.
Only my mommy.
I don't deserve her love,
Nor her new lover.
No one Can replace him,
It won't be the same
Like a Horizontal lane.
It's not equal.
I want equal.
Not uneven.
His name is Steven.
