Sarah, be the bigger person
Don’t let your frustration show
He’s your one and only Dad
Forgiveness, let this hatred go
Yes, we hear he calls you names
Says things we know are untrue
You need to ignore that drama
Don’t let it get the best of you
Remember to be thankful
For if it wasn’t for this life you’ve lived
You wouldn’t be who you are today
This box of darkness is a gift
Damnit, stop telling me to show grace
For trauma, manipulation, and abuse
I’m the one who turned my life around
Not some dead-beat who cons the youth
Someone, anyone take my side
For once validate these feelings
That we shouldn’t pat someone on the back
For being less evil than their upbringing
