What were you?

What were you? A dad? No.
You were just some guy I knew.
Not a role model, not someone
Who protected me, just a man.

You yell at me and gaslight me,
But you think it's okay. I thought
So too, but now that's the only
Kind of love I know.

The kind of love a crave.

Because you were supposed to
Protect me from the monsters
Not to be one yourself.
