PRETENCE LOVE OF A FAILED FATHER
They Say He Pretends to love and Care for Her,
Because He can't tend and take Care of Her
She is a brittle Night Butterfly inside his Clenched Fist, Pretending to protect Her from the Sun...
Love is just a blemish on his lips
........
He seems to soar low in the midst of a mist
solo weighed with sorrow
hollow Hobo, holding onto a Halo with holes
Swollen from swallowing 'I Swears...'
A Sorry as***le on a whole.
So sore seeing so much silent suffering surfacing she had to ignore and he Acted as if he never saw.
Staying strong is skating on spinning Saws,
'So Sorry' is spoken salt to sores Raw as Gore,
Sadly said and sat on ear's door so they can easily ignore.
Floored from flaws,
War torn, foaming and fumbling from the Core
An incomplete caricature claiming Care but can't comment on what Her core meant
A Dead Dad
Dirt dragged on Door mats
Dormant man drained out every Moment
Half a heart holding onto Honour as an ornament
Takes Talking as tortured tours
Didn't try
Though Died Tired,
Tongue tied,Tormented then tossed to the deep end
Friend depended
Often offended
Frequently finds extra Friendliness to extend in Pretence
Hence the presence of piles of smiles for miles as a fence of Defence
But can't even evade being available, devalued with various forms of violence
He rushes to thrust his trust and love with lack of Evidence
He has No sense to sense nonsense, nor notice the unseen that dares to dance without reason
And Ever since then, his unrest has risen
And Even sin seems to be in season
And It God's long gone before sounding the song of the gong.
And suddenly So much has gone wrong...
Such as missing so much and he misses Her so much.
Then he loses touch the tighter he tries to clutch.
He tries to play his part,
But comes apart,
parting with every part of his heart,
Quietly he acquires the awkward skill of standing still,
and creates Art from being stuck at the start.
A kinda of Kindling killed by the dampness of its kindness.
killing over with too much time to kill,
A has binned 'has been' husk Happily hopping hula hoops, Hoping to find the pill to Heal and Feel,
a frail failed father filled with fear found from bills,
At the end and in Hell with a head held high, heading uphill, arched with an arching Achilles Heel,
Trailing across treks without maps and through traps, faking thrills, trying not to reveal the ills of keeping it real...
