Lyrics to another song I wrote

Again, the pattern is copied from another song, but the idea is that the music would be different.

They say we are made of our memories

That they are our roots ensnaring stories

But now yours have fell as you came to age

And you have no words, and I don’t know what to say

Tell me of them, and now

Your and my mom’s vow

The scar on your eyebrow

How grandma used to bake

And swimming in the lake

I can still get to know you

Dear dad, tell me what you can and I’ll

Try to understand you've done your best

The best you know how to.

But who will I become?

And who are you

Undone

I know you’re there

So help me find my way to you

What do I ask?

To unlock your mind’s dark chains?

Tell me of them, and now

When you saw my eyes

Your Halloween disguise

How grandma used to bake

And swimming in the lake

I can still get to know you

Dear dad, tell me what you can and I’ll

Try to understand you've done your best

The best you know how to.

But who will I become?

And who are you

Undone

Dear dad, I’ll tell you what I can and

Try to understand I've done my best

The best I know how to.

But who will you become?

And who am I

Undone

(Prompt by me)

I'm angry

I'm angry. And I don't (at the moment) want to be talked out of it. I struggle, often, with expressing or even just sitting with my emotions. I feel like even the photo I chose for this post was more reserved or toned down than how I feel. But, this is my trying. I'm not going to time this post, just going to write until I feel done, whenever that may be. In this post, I'm going to focus on the anger I feel around my dad and my dad's death. Though, don't get me wrong, I'm also angry about a lot of things going on in my city, in my country, and in the world. My dad chose alcohol over me and my brother. There is no way around this fact. Yes, when I am less angry, I can be more reasonabl and recognize that addiction is a disesase and he didn't have control over it. But, right now, I want to be angry. I want to get to be angry. I want to get to feel my feelings. I don't want to rationalize, I don't want to be reasonable, I don't want to be fair....
