The standards I derived
This led to my demise
I despised every word he spoke
In my mind it was all lies
This wasn’t the way love was depicted in the movies
My favorite TV dads would never disrespect me in such a fashion
Father figures surrounded me
Yet I still doubted him
How come the pain runs so deep within me
He is living his life carefree
I’m running to different men to accept me
Longing for the connection that contributed to the creation of me
Will any male ever love me
I don’t see the love of GOD placed in me
My outlook is shrouded in negativity
As the streams of tears fall from my cheek
What about me
My sanity is choking my creativity
Erupting mentally
Drowning in insecurity
