Description
A poem I wrote for a lost child. I have books of baby pictures, I don't know what to do with them. I am afraid she will set them on fire. She is engulfed in hatred, and there is nothing I can do. She won't speak to me, she won't listen to me, she won't give me a chance. She was forcefully separated from me at the age of 15 months by the courts, then shipped off to a foreign country for nearly six years. She was removed from my life completely. Her father has since disallowed all contact. I tried with the courts, but it was too hard for me. I failed her, and she has been brainwashed. So I must bury my daughter, respect her wishes and never contact her again. She said she wanted to burn my letters, and called all of my gifts to her 'tacky.' She hates everything about me, I suspect she hates my existence. She suspect she hates her brothers too, because they have me while she didn't. I know she is full of pain, but it comes out as vitriol anger.
