Daddy is a (Fe)Male

To Whom It May Concern

I cannot hide

I cannot run

I've done my time

I've got to go. 

My father died

A braver soul. 

He was killed. 

Hung in a pole. 

His sins I see

In tarnished red

I hate to see

My father dead

My mother cried

As I was told

My fathers life

Will go no more

They say to live. 

To keep on go

But my tears will hide

What I cannot hold. 

It's been a year. 

Since his death. 

My mothers gone

And I am next. 

My little Jewel

They smile no more

I had no money

To take her home

My dearest friends

The writer I know

Write this please

Don't leave this alone

My last dear word. 

Just for you. 

Is to let it out. 

But not through blue
