Dad

I would like to be closer to You.  Know You.  You know?

Thanks.  really.  You've really been there for me.  Im sorry I overlooked that 

a lot

a lot a lot.

But thanks. really.

I want my yearning for You to shine thru it all.  let the rest fade... yeah?  

Thanks for working with me.  I know Im stubborn.  well.. maybe I dont.  

but I know Im really an ass sometimes.

I really hope You dont give up on me.  I know You wont because You're You.. 

but I must say it:  I really hope You dont give up on me.

I want to learn to love the right way.  love You the right way.  

and again... thanks
