Dear
Dad,
Thank
you for making me
feel so pathetic
this morning as
you took me
to school, yelling
at me for not
being awake 10
minutes earlier.
Thank you
for telling me that I
should be ashamed
of myself and
my irresponsibility.
Thank you for
setting a ridiculous
curfew that I
will not be able
to meet. Thank
you for telling me
that my insommia
is "made
up". Thank
you for deciding
that you would not
call in and excuse
me from being
given detention,
even on days when
it really isn't
my fault. Thank
you for calling
me lazy. Thank you
for screaming
at me that I an undisciplined
simply because I
took a few minutes last night and
watched some tv
while I ate dinner.
Thank you
for promising
me that I was a
failure and that
I would fail
college
because of these 8
am lectures. Thank
you. Really,
Dad. Thank you.
Tearfully,
-SheDreamer
