Of A Son

I hate you.

You fake; You liar; You hypocrite

I hate the way you pretend to be strong

how you went in search of 'truth' and 'redemption'

all you did was run away from the ones who needed you

your family

-

I hate the way you fooled everyone

They almost drown in awe from your presence

Can't they see through your smiles, your looks?

You are nothing but a weak man

And I hate you for it.

-

I hate how everything falls apart when you're not here with us

How Mother slowly dies

I know what it is that's killing her

You bastard.

I can't stand watching her love you.

Even now.

Even still.

-

I remember how much I hated the way you used to look at me

How your eyes used to say

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry,

I failed you."

I think I used to love you then.

Not anymore

-

I remember how you used to carry me on your back

I never fell off

Not even when you ran

And I felt the wind rush over me

Like some gigantic wave

I don't think I have ever felt so alive

so clear

-

I remember what it felt like when you held me

Your heart seemed so close then.

-

I hate you…

and i hate that i miss you.
