Challenge

Just to remind myself i went back to the first entry of this blog. And was reminded of what the objective of this blog was. i had gone through a slump in my artistic endeavours and had for some reason stopped writing and stopped painting...like i have done again. so i decided to start this blog as a little project to help me get started. i set a challenge for myself that i will write/paint or do something creative every single day. i will then post all that i have been doing everyday. i figured if i have an audience i will feel kinda obligated to perform and it will push me to do better. so here we go....the challenge is back on and i will try to stick to it for more than just a couple of days this time

on that note the piece for today
its unfinished by the way...but i feeln like i want to share this we you

Dear Dad

I have wanted to write this for so long
What yopu did was just so wrong
And I'm not talking about you leaving
Or for half the time pretending I dont exist
Mama always pushing me "go see him, he is your Father" she'll insist
I'll stand for hours at the taxi rank
Waiting for you to come pick me up
Never showing up was just so easy for you
But that is not my beef with you
I have laid in pillow puddles of tears
Not coz of your passing(i am at peace with that)
Or the countless unkept promises
But coz you are not there
and i need you so much right now
