Dear Dad

I thought of you today I thought that I missed you I began writing you a letter. Filled with hurtful words then I realised I didn't have your address I didn't know your number. I paused awhile dropped a tear And continued writing the letter I wanted you to feel my pain To utter my name. To take some blame But then I notice that you have no shame As you believe that your departure Caused my sister and I no pain Dear Dad, do you even remember our name.
