Confessions Poem

Dear Dad;

I confess to you here and now,
I am not your little girl anymore.
I confess to loving other people,
not just you dadddy.
I love my friends, and my boyfriend.
They are apart of my family.
My family, which expands and grows,
it's not just about you Dad.

You have always fought with me on this.
Fought with me on everything.
I have news for you daddy dearest,
this is my teenage rebellion towards
your over controlling habit.
I am fighting for what I have to do,
and for who I love. It's what I have to do.

I need to make my mistakes Dad,
I need to make them on MY own.
This is MY life Dad, you can't
protect me forever. My confessions to
YOU is, I am sorry for breaking your
heart. Like YOU said I did.
I never did any of this to hurt you.
I need to do what's best for me, but
you never listen to me.

You're a stubborn old man and your
suffocating me. I am sorry for what
I have done to you. But you've never
admitted you were wrong or apologized either.

But I'll apologize now, and clear my conscious.
