Dear Dad

Hi, it's your daughter speaking. Yeah, that one. The one that I feel like you don't care about, that one that you don't see hurting, don't hear crying, the one trying so hard to fix this family and your ex wife. Yeah that one.
Ever sense I've been little you left me all alone with a person that is hurting me, making me feel so god dam worthless day and night, isn't trying to get back on her feet. Shooting up her arm. Do you know that this is going on? Or do you know and just don't care because it's not your problem? So what you work in California and we are in Georgia. You can still come and visit and make sure we are ok! But honestly dad you don't fucking care ! You're so god dam clueless.
Oh what do you say? "I have my sisters" I mean yeah you're right! But you know, they have their own life they care about, they also don't see me hurting everyday. Olivia has a baby now and Alexia has her boyfriend . They have their own life's they care about. So why worry about mine.
Truth is dad, I miss you. I miss those late drives, fishing trips, camping, hiking, letting me drive the car even though I ditched it. What happened to the dad I knew? What happened to the corny dad jokes? What happened to the last minute road trip plans?
Listen, I know you work in California. But please hear me out, please help me get though this. But that's right. I'm THAT one. I'm the youngest sister so what do I know, right?
I may not have a job, I may not have a husband or kids. But I'm trying. I just want to make you proud. But it seems like all I'm doing is the opposite. I love you dad. I always will.
But I'll always be that one. You will honestly never understand. So don't try now.
           Sincerely,
      That one, your daughter........ (Elizabeth)
