When Father Let Go Of Son Poem by Not Long Left

When Father Let Go Of Son

Rating: 5.0


fourteen years ago,
you let go
of my hand,
since then
I am told
that every night
in my sleep,
I strech out my palms
and ask for a squeeze.
In the morning my hands,
are always closed.

Oh this is just so sincere, open, and fond. I also find it rather saddening, though, since the speaker no longer seems to have his father there for him. If this poem is really about you, Vincey, then I hope I'm wrong. Goodwillingly, Gina. Oh yeah, it'll be a 10 from me. G.
