| Alpha List | Last June my parents got divorced. So now I see my dad on weekends. My best Friend. My good angel. So anyhow, He lives with his girlfriend, and I'm his weekend guest. It works out 'cause I love her and her three Boys. But my mom says I can't go there Weekdays 'cause my grades will slip. Really. But she's got rights, and I don't have a prayer. Why is it parents have the right to split When they have kids? Why don't they have to wait? Why are they so free to choose, while it Becomes our job to learn to bear our fate? Right now right through my heart there runs a wall That I did not erect, as I recall. |
