What do you say
To the toddler who asks
"Where's my Daddy?"
What do you say
To the elementary student who cries
All because they went to a daddy/daughter dance with their uncle and it was frowned upon
What do you say
To the eight-year-old that asks
For the hundreth time "What happened to my Dad?"
What so you say
To a nine-year-old reassuring
People that it's not their fault their father is dead
What do you say
To the tween that just now
Knows the name of her father
What do you say
To the fresh teen who doesn't know
Whether their father was murdered or committed suicide
What do you say
To a confused fifteen-year-old
That has just learned their mother lied to them all their life about their father's death
What do you say
To the broken child
Who feels they let their father down, all because they never knew when to celebrate their deceased parent's birthday
What do you say
To your child
What do you say
That isn't denial
What do you say
That isn't a lie
What so you say
To make sure they don't cry
What do you say
When there's no more hidding it
What do you say
When everything you've said is bullshit
What do you say...
What did you say?
~~A/N: well this was unexpected...
I didn't mean to abandon wattpad, and I didn't intend to make a promise I couldn't keep (yknow, with STL) but major shit happened after my last update that prohibited me from continuing
I'll try to update STL soon, itll just be sloppy seeing that I don't have a working computer ATM
I hope all of y'all had a fantastic holiday season. I didn't but I'm trying to move forward. I've had a shitty 2015 that just got shittier in the past few months, but honestly I'm trying to move past it because I know its pointless, but I can't. Hopefully wattpad will help me channel the emotions that I have into writing thats well done and enjoyed.
I love you all, and here's a depressing poem I wrote about my dad because I'm too afraid to confront my mom with it.
~TJ (this is a name change, I still go by JJ, but I prefer TJ now since I have for the most part come out as genderfluid. Either name is fine but know I'll be signing my authors notes with TJ instead of JJ. I'm still the same person, I've just let lose of my clear-coat of what I was keeping inside)
