Moment to moment,
I lose a little bit more of myself
and give in to what’s really on my mind
Dare I be modest when passion overflows
Honesty gets taken for granted
But I can only be authentic
I’m sorry if this hurts
I’m sorry if you still do

Entry #37, A Family Man
Installed a bathtub today, mighty fine work if I do say so myself. Only problem is my family hates it.
“Eww dad, it’s so old and gross,” my eldest says.
“Really, honey… with how tight money’s been lately… I don’t know.
I wish you would have talked to me about it first.”Why can’t they just be happy.
(more…)
Why can’t they just appreciate that I wanted
to do something nice for us… for the family.
It’s not this horrible old thing.
It’s hope! Comfort.
Sanctuary.
