It somewhat made sense,

The thing she tried to infer,

I guess in order to understand,

I’d have to be her.

 

Putting myself in her shoes,

I see her love this man,

 But I can’t understand,

My dad’s love for Anne.

 

It’s not that she’s terrible,

 It’s not that she’s bad,

I just can’t understand,

The mind of my dad.

 

I’m honestly upset,

And so very confused,

The thoughts running in my mind,

Are left to be used.

 

 I can’t see them together,

But I can’t see them apart,

But I’ll forever know ,

My dad is in her heart.

 

I can see that she loves him,

How you could you not?

My dad is a wonderful man,

 He puts forth lots of effort and thought.

 

 I can see that she is trying,

To better understand,

 But I think she needs to take a step back,

 And let my dad take the upper hand.

 

 He’s not sure what he wants right now,

 It’s very plain to see,

 But I’m sure with time it will come to him,

 These things just don’t come easy.

 

 For now I say we let him choose,

Let him try and decide,

 But we should stick together,

 Because he sadly lets his emotions hide.

 

Lets join together and help him,

Make sure he stays happy,

happiness is all i've ever wanted,

for my dad, my herb, my pappy.

 

--Dedication – this is a poem about how I feel right now with the Anne/Herb situation.

Re:

Nice poem, and a hard question. It's probably next to imposable to understand a person, that’s the whole trust thing.

It all feels next to impossible to understand this situation...and to learn from it may be the hard part.

 

Thanks for being a faithful reader <3

Re:
Welcome!

Well, think about what you want. Sometimes, we love others so much that we want the best for them. But in the process we forget that it is actually our own concept of what is best that we try to impose on others.

Relax, simmer down a bit. Take time to savour God's gifts. Look around.Life is wonderful!  After you have discovered a bit look back and see how your dad is doing.  I am sure he can take care of himself.
