I Didn'T Know. Poem by pickle juice

I’m sorry dad.
I didn’t mean to be spoiled.
I didn’t know that you were so mad.
It was scary when your emotions uncoiled.

You told me you were angry.
You said I didn’t care,
About the things you do for me.
It made my heart tear.

You took out your frustration inside our home
You slammed your hands and stomped your feet.
And it was the first time you let your feelings roam.
You had been fighting them but you were beat.

You told me you hated
How I took things for granted.
You said sorry that our things are outdated.
I wanted to apologize but I was silent while you ranted.

I only have seen you cry
One time before,
When our dog Baby was going to die.
Dad, I didn’t know your heart was so sore.

But Dad, on day I hope
That you will forgive me
And I will learn to cope
And cherish your undying love that will always be.
