You're the reason I'm picked on
But you've long since gone
I'm your son
And look what you've done
You divorced mom when I was child
You have my number, but you've never dialled
I used to lie awake at night
In hope not spite
That you'd walk back through the door
Just set foot on my floor
Now I lie awake at night scared
Getting ready, getting prepared
Prepared for if you walk through the door
Prepared for if you come back to cause more
More destruction to little old me
For I no longer know who you are or what you may-be
I'm only seventeen yet that information is long-since lost
Like a whisper in the wind or a friend double crossed
I have but two memories of you with the family and such
And even remembering them is too much
Too much for me too handle
Making me feel weak like a solitary candle
And you wouldn't care if I burnt and faded away
You woudn't even know, because you didn't stay
You don't even send money to help us along
Just left us, but we're united, we're strong
We make it through life without you
And I no how you hurt her too
Emotionally, physically and mentally scarred for life
Told her what to do or threatened her with a knife
Stood and watched your mates with a gun too her head
Watching them play russian roulette, in a second she could be dead
She's in tears, the trigger is pressed
The room filled with baited breathe, you're not even distressed
She survived with odds of two out of six
Yeah, I heard those stories of your games and tricks
Now even if I saw you I wouldn't even recognise you
But the funny thing is, I really don't want too
You left us, all alone, the future looking grim
Now, if I see you I swear I'll tear you limb from limb
This is bad but made mom so mad and that makes me sad
I wonder how many people can say their worst enemy, is their own dad

Making me feel weak like a solitary candle" - it sounds like you needed something to complete the rhime.
"Stood and watched your mates with a gun too her head
Watching them play russian roulette, in a second she could be dead" - wow. this nearly scared me, or got me the "HOW COULD THEY"-feeling.
Really nice poem, as usual

Makes you feel she never sees,
But silently, deep inside,
She knows all your fantasies."

No matter how hard you try
Or what lies you were fed
She cant ever come back
You cant awaken the dead
