Father,

You wanted me to fight monsters

But I wanted to bring them back home

I never had any friends

You didn't quite like that


Father,

When I was drowning

You pushed me further below

Hoping I would get stronger


Father,

I loved you

But that was long ago

Some people can only be in our hearts

And not in our lives


Father,

I have always loved looking at the stars

But you have been afraid

Of the uncharted

And I've detested you for that


Father,

I alone will decide my fate

I would die willingly

Rather than live like a puppet

And for that, I'll never apologize


Our souls are at odds

Father
