Dear Father
Dear Father,
I never meant to bother,
But I couldn't help but notice the piercing holler.
I never meant to bother,
But I couldn't help but notice you weren't acting proper.
I never meant to bother,
But I couldn't help but notice you are trying to be stronger.
I never meant to bother,
But I couldn't help but notice your thoughts were littered with horror.
I never meant to bother,
But I couldn't help but notice how you screamed at the doctor.
I never meant to bother,
But I couldn't help but notice it seems you were hit by a bomber.
I never meant to bother,
But I couldn't help but notice someone ran off with your lucidity like a bank robber.
I never meant to bother,
But I couldn't help but notice the whispers of "he's a goner".
I never meant to bother,
But Father I couldn't help but notice your demeanor has been slaughtered.
I never meant to bother,
Your daughter.
