Continious Chain
Something great and false lives on in my memories. I can say I was a neglected child and tried to acheive profection to gain my fathers affection, but that would be a fraction of a lie. Today I have three fathers, but only two of them are around and they aren't even my real dad.
I used to remember my dad, but as the years fly by I begin to realize how little and distant they really are. It all started with my grandfather, and of course I don't know him, but anyways it's with him that the continious chain starts. I'll never be able to even begin to understand his reasons for leaving, sometims I curse him for it and other times I give him props, this family isn't the greatest. Would it have made a differenc if he stayed anyways? My point is though that he did leave, he leaft my grandmother with two kids.
My uncle raised my dad, my grandma was busy working four to five jobs, drinking, and sleeping with any man she could. Don't get me wrong I love my grandma I just don't agree with the way she lived her life, or the fact that she can't keep quiet. I think the only reason my uncle stays around his kids is for all they money his wife brings in and maybe because he raised my dad, but he certainly isn't a good one forgeting about his first two daughters from his previous marriages, and beating on the ones he has now.
As you can tell from my writing my dad is no longer around, and thats his own decision. I recall being dragged around from girlfriend to girlfriend, he's what women would call a man whore, uses drugs, and sexual violence to get his way. The only good thing I can say about it is he left me out of it, totally oblivious to it all until a year ago, and not from him but from his exgirlfriends when I was searching for the truth about my dad. Thats a book my mother should have never encouraged me to open.
I hate the fact that I used him for so many years to move on in life secretly screaming am I good enough yet, can't you throw me one frickin complement. When all this time I've had the best replacements anyone could ever have. Theres Eric my moms husband who has been my dad sense I was two years old and the best replacement any girl could ever ask for. And then theres Mike my father in law, we haven't known eachother that long and already he's weasled his way into my heart and showin me how shitty my dad really was.
If I had guts I'd send this to him except he can't read, he wouldn't respond to me anyways he's just turn me into the family enemy and I'd have to listen to " Poor Mitch." "You need to be the adult and fix things with your father." "All he's ever been is a good dad to you, if you should be mad with anyone it should be your mother." You get the idea, right?
So I have the brother thats finally snapped, crackled. and popped. And the dad whose crying out for his own attention but wanting to retain his youth, a married daughter can certainly put a damper on that, and sense he has no other kids one is easy enough to hide.
