A Daughter's Uncertainty

You say that you'll walk me down the aisle at my wedding.
That you'll be there for the birth of my first child.
But when I see you rub the spot where your heart rests,
I'm not so sure.
I cry when I see you clutch your chest.
I know that you and I don't the best realtionship that we should.
I tried to do all that I could love you but protect myself as well.
We have had such vicious fights.
I cried until my chest hurt.
Somedays I hated you.
Then I think that those might be the last words I ever say to you.
I just want to forget about the past
because I want this relationship to last.
I can't listen to "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd anymore.
Cause when I do it makes me think of how much I will wish that you were there when you are gone.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

My dad and I have a love/ hate relationship. This past year I faught with my father about everything. There were months when we wouldn't speak to each other. Then things got somewhat better. I wrote this poem because life is too short. I realized that I just wanted to move on and try to have the best relationship that I can have with him.
