I want to talk about parenting,

Growing up in a house with your Mom and Dad

Not worrying about the awkward hello

when it's your graduation

and your step parents

and biological parents are there

Not having the constant worry

if I talk about him will he care?

I want to talk about not having to worry when the next time your gonna see your dad is,

Not having to worry if he is going to show up when you make plans,

Not having to worry if i'm getting ditched again

just like when I was one.

I want to talk about how unfair it feels

to never know what it was like to have both parents in the same house,

How families have big dinners at a table with many chairs,

Playing games, laughing, and having a great time.

I want to talk about how drinking replaced me,

When I see him

I feel it's always a race

to drop me off so he can go home and

“Crack a cold one”

It really shows what his priorities are.
