All the pain you put me through,
all the tears I've cried for you,
all the restless nights i laid awake,
and all the excuses I tried to make,
I stood up for you, I had your back,
all the times I wondered what you were like.
Everyone else talked trash,
but I ignored, all the mean things they tried to store,
up in my head, but it didn't work.
I still think about you,
every night and day,
but if you were here,
I'd still have to say...
you were such a jerk,
how could you do that?
but i feel like i have to love you,
because you are my dad.
why did I waste all of my tears?
when you left me alone for all these years.
one day you'll see me and you will see how sad,
I've been for so long,
And you'll get the message I had,
I don't care what you think of me,
now that I'm grown,
one day I will get married and have kids of my own.
I'll make sure the dad is not a jerk like you,
but for some odd reason,
I still love you.

very good poem ,expressing so many different emotions in so many different ways,
i like the fact you rhymed but perhaps it would have flowed better with the same amount of syllables per line,
its a poets prerogative i guess.
anyway
very good write, thank you for entering my contest,

I think this is really good. It seems to express a sort of dislike that is defined by the new lack of love as well as some determination and slight revenge in a way but maybe better put as..hmm..anger working towards justice, maybe?
