    In the Eyes of My Father

    In the eyes of my father
    I see a girl that could never be
    I see a girl who isn't happy
    I see a girl who sees me

    In the eyes of my father
    I breathe destruction
    A girl who creates choas
    and who's mind could never function

    In the eyes of my father
    I see a love that is dismissed
    A love that always fails
    and a love I'll never miss

    In the eyes of my father
    I see something that isn't fair
    "No love from my daddy cuz the courage isn't here
    When he pass away I bet I won't cry
    Cuz my anger would never let me feel for a stranger"

    In the eyes of my father
    I see a curse
    "I get my eyes from him"
    and that only makes me worse

    In the eyes of my father
    I see a soul
    It's black as cold
    and to me would never unfold

    In the eyes of my father
    I see a broken heart
    I see my mother standing
    And a divorce in the start

    In the eyes of my father
    I see my brother Cory
    the one who took care of me
    but tells a different story

    In the eyes of my father
    I see my sister NeNe
    The one who set my flame
    and from her passion I gained

    In the eyes of my father
    I see my brother Derrick
    The one that he corrupted
    but also is the most caring

    In the eyes of my father
    I see a girl that could never be
    I see a girl who isn't happy
    I see a girl who sees me

    what a master piece, and this you should know, can I give you a little advice if so, Please if all this is true you need to let go and let God, and no that he will see you thru.

    I've already forgiven my father. I let go some time ago. But thanks for the support.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
