a father is supposed to teach his daughter
what love is
right?
well if thats the case then love is
beer cans, cigarettes, and trust issues
love is; disappearing for days at a time, calling rarely to say hi and remind you he loves you
right?
love is "if he picks on you he likes you"
that's what you said dad.
but then why does it hurt when he punches me
why does it hurt when he disappears
he's just like you dad,
but
you were supposed to be my first love,
but you left, i was four
so i guess thats what i've been searching for
someone who will make me believe
that they love me then leave
just like you did dad
are you proud yet?
