He Who Wasnt

where was you when i was a baby or on the first day of school
where was you when i was bullied and treated like a fool

where was you when i was low and really needed you there
where was you to let me know how much you really did care

where was you to be part of my life and be a really great dad
where was you to tell me off whenever i made you mad

where was you on Christmas day all the family together
where was you to love me as your child as dads should do forever 

but because your not here i am nothing to you
your a stranger to me and you neglected me to
maybe on day we will meet and you will be proud of me
a childs life you missed out on what will be will be

Hi Linda thank you taking the time out to read and speak with me how are you ? I'm very new to this I'm 26 but most of these are from 2004 my school days but no one had seen them and I'm a lot more confidant now to do what I love advice would be most helpful thank you Dominique X
