Why Dad
Hey dad this is for you
Oh dad….
Why did you leave me?
I am alone with no guidance
Every time I have a birthday and never get a card
I remember the pain you caused
Throughout my last 19 years
It aint easy to grow up without you
But I made it and I am stronger than ever
But I made it and am stronger than ever before
Daddy why did you say good bye
And stop talking to me
All I want is to get a card from you or something
I sit here every day and am stuck with the sad truth that you wouldn’t send it
I don’t know what to do
I am lost without you
But you never send for me
I sat there for 19 years praying hoping to see you
And then the day came
I saw you for a few years and you disappeared again
Leaving me without a man in my life
I had no male guidance to speak of
But I had my three headed mother that will ever live on
I hope to see you still
No matter the pain caused you are still my dad and I love you
Just remember you have a son who cares and is old enough to understand
All I want is to talk
To speak
To write
Something for me to know you care and haven’t forgotten about me
Just haven’t forgotten me or else
I would truly be lost for good
No one will help me
I will be lost forever and never to be found
No matter what they do
The only cure would be you saying I love you
I need dad more than ever and don’t know to do without you
