Dad
You hurt me
Big time
You made me question if it was my fault or if I did anything wrong,I walked and still walk on eggshells around you,on Father’s Day all I see is posts I can’t never say
The truth is I’ve been bitter,I’ve been angry,I hated you to a level I couldn’t breathe so much so I couldn’t sleep
I thought all I want is what everyone should have,I not asking too much am I?
A loving father,one that’ll hold my hand,tell me I’m loved and be my guide
I don’t have that and I’ll never do but I let go,I’m moving through
Hating you cost me things money couldn’t buy,it created notions I couldn’t hide,I’m trying to recover from them,I’m trying to be better,I’m trying to let go it’s all in this letter
Bottom line is a letter won’t fix this but this is step one I forgive you pops

Forgiving does not mean the past and the pain didn't happen. You are releasing yourself of the emotional burden. You don't even have to tell them.

I had similar issues with my dad and I felt better when I unburdened myself. Remember, forgiveness is for you, not him.

Writing a letter that you never will send us a great healthy way to heal. I feel like this with my own parents.
