Lost
by
arhllm


Father found
in Florida
bitter and cold
no picture to
compare
before and after.

Imagined me
someone else's
daughter
fallen from
the sky.

His blood running
through my veins
no pride in the knowledge.
Nothing left behind
to claim me
to an act done
years before.

Promises not
broken
never made.
All that's
left
all that
was
is a name
a number
the dial tone
remains
buzzing in my
ear.
