Where I Am
By Viet Pryde

Why did you leave me
All I wanted was to give help
All I wanted was to be given help
You promised me you would
So why didn't you do it?

Your harsh words stung
Your names brought tears to my eyes
I don’t have a dad anymore
He is just a mere person
Trying to control my life

Never expecting I wanted something else Forcing me to take the familiar road
When I wanted to make a new path
Never remembering where I was
Where I stood
Where my heart lay

All he cared about
Was where his own heart wished to lay
I am no longer me I am no longer the one to decide my own fate
I am the executioner of another's dream
I am someone's second chance at life

A/N: Heh, a bit angsty, but this is probably one of the few poems I put all my emotions into. Written after a long arguement with my dad.
