Father & Baby Care
I can forgive that you
made me
feel dirty and unloved
because there was a time
when you were confused too
and found your own path
away from that.
and so were trying in your way
to pull the bracken from the path,
to show me where it lay.
but when you did
the bracken struck my face
and blinded me to you
and thus to me as well.
and when I cried you couldn’t see
for you were blinded too,
and anger was the only path you knew,
so stormed it like a lost soldier
and only made my wounds bleed more
