'Too Much' by Nick "Novel" Gabanski

​Too Much
Nick “Novel” Gabanski
 
 
So many words lost
So many years gone
So many things you never told me
You could have told me
Had your pride not stood so mighty
 
Could you ever accept me
Were you ever proud of me
Why couldn’t you just tell me
When everyone around me says
“Your father was so proud of you”
 
So much anger
So many tears shed
So much regret throbbing in my heart
Because you never told me
Everything I needed to hear
 
But that chance is gone
Those days are a memory that was never made
And I’m still here
Wishing to have one more talk
But it won’t happen
You’re dead, Dad.
