I haven't been home in years. <br />I had a falling out with my father. <br />It was a nasty fall out. <br />He hated the fact. <br />I'm gay. <br />He couldn't understand it. <br />Mom has no problems. <br />I won't carry on the family name. <br />I'm their only child. <br />I was the last one in line. <br />I couldn't help being gay. <br />It's who I am forever. <br />I can't change it. <br />No one can. <br />I recieved a letter from mom. <br />Dad is on the deathbed. <br />It may be the last chance. <br />Hopefully, he want to make amends. <br />I have doubts about that. <br />He claimed he don't have a son. <br />I'm dead to him. <br />He has never call me. <br />He has never write a letter. <br />He has never send me a email. <br />Mom want me to visit. <br />I really don't want to <br />But I don't want to disappoint her. <br />After all, she didn't stop loving me. <br />I'm doing it for her. <br />Most of all, I'm doing it for me. <br />I'm coming home.
