One Day

One day, he'll show up. One day, he'll open these

doors and walk in. Life will resume; no longer

will it resemble a void. Everything will go back 

to the way it was...before.


One day, I'll get a call from him. One day, I'll

answer and hear his voice one last time. Never

again will I call upon imaginary spirits to summon 

him to me. One day, he'll just...be there.


One day, we'll laugh together. One day, I'll

hug him and feel accepted. We'll tell jokes as

we listen to his Rock 'N Roll music. One day, I'll 

feel...complete.


One day, he'll apologize and mean it. One day, 

he'll say he loves me and I'll believe him . We'll 

talk about literally any- and everything we want

to. One day, I'll speak to him and say..."I

forgive you."


One day, he'll remember that I exist. One day,

he'll call and I'll ignore it. I'll stop caring and

go on with my life. One day, I'll stop seeing him

as my father. Because one day, he'll come

for me, and one day, he'll be...too late.
