Stones,
So much has been going on lately. I’ve been absent, indifferent, and unmotivated. But just recently I was hit with a spark of inspiration and post a poem that’s been eating away at me for a while. It’s been so long since I’ve written anything. Let me know what you think.
Not My Place
It’s not my place
To ask you to stay
I mean
What can I really say?
Fact is
I’m not your actual kid
And what you did
And have already done
Is more than enough
A battle you’ve won
That wasn’t yours to fight
What she’s doing isn’t right
And it’s your right
To walk away
But I’m pleading with you
Dad
Please Stay
Until we speak again
Bleed and exist,
S. Hollisway
