Dad

You'd think it would make me angry
You'd think it would make me sad
But if this is about honesty
Then to tell the truth it made me glad
That thing you called "marriage"
Was never ever that
When you screamed at my mom
Did you feel like a better dad?
I wish it hurt
When you walked away from me
When you left the family
And took away apart of me
I wish it hurt
I wish it would cut me
I wish it would bleed
But instead it just scars up
And shows a weaker side of me
I wish it made me angry
But instead it made me glad
I'm happy you're out of my life
But I guess I still love you dad.
