Look what you did to me Dad
Told you to stop but you didn't
Look where I am now thanks to you
Look what you made me do
Locked in this jacket like a mad man
All because you abused me
In returned I killed you
You should of listened to me
No one wanted to help me
Left alone to fight this battle
You wouldn't stop no matter what
Look at where I am now Dad
Mad blood running through my veins
No longer on my fragile hands
Or on my evil stricken face
All because of you Dad
You abused me one too many times
You had to pay for what you have done
How does it feel to get beaten alive
Now you are dead while I still suffer alive
I hope your soul goes to an ungodly place
Continue to pay for what you caused
As for me, I'll sit in this place on meds
In these straps holding me; untrusted
Oh Dad, one other thing
Mad blood connects us
Thank you for bringing it alive
I will continue to suffer and you died

Too persnal--The beatings stopped when
I became bigger, faster and stroger.
What a surprised indivual one eventful day.
Never struck a blow just took the power away
by pinnong his arms--denying him the use of them.

Very emitional poem. It is a great way to adress your father w/o having to see him./ I too am an incest survivor but not from my dad. I pray for you to someday find closure but I know you must go through it first. Have you ever heard of the book, courage to heal?

The last time I saw him was in NOV2007 when he was in the hospital from a gunshot wound to the dead from trying to kill himself after killing his girlfriend. Even with all the crap he's put my mom through, his girlfriend (not really sure what all happened there), and me, I still reach out to him trying to have that father/daughter relationship. He's kinda changed since he's been awaiting trial. I basically just write about him to get all my anger out for all the things he's done. I have realized I don't totally hate him, but he's done a lot of damage to me. My dad never did any thing sexual to me...just every thing else.
Sorry to hear about what happened and thanks for your support and your comment
And I haven't heard of that book, but I use writing in a way to heal, just because I hate meds and counseling...

This is such an emotive piece, raw and bitter. Better to think about than to actually do. Great writing.
Best of luck

That is true, even though thoughts can led to actions. He's in jail awaiting trial for murder and I'm still suffering from all the shit he did...Go figure!
Thanks for commenting...
