Sofia Ra Poet Free verse

Leaving Her Behind

She reached for you even when you 
were no where to be found
waiting for your unconditional love
like  merry go round

Same blood running through
each others veins
she was conceived through
a passion igniting a flame

A father is supposed to show
her the way
instead you left her
Astray

For a piece of her will
always be missing
wondering why unremitting

When you left she will
never understand why
to young to remember the
reason for goodbye

Anne-Marie Coreggia March 21, 2017 at 12:59 PM A touching poem. Not all men are meant to be fathers and neither are all women meant to be mothers . . . and some of them they realize it too late. It so unfair and hurtful for the children left behind. Amitiés Sofia Ra March 21, 2017 at 1:10 PM yes you are write, some people shouldn't be parents. Thank you for commenting. looking at your poetry very beautiful

Chris Green March 21, 2017 at 11:47 AM This one touched my heart in a sad way. To a father, his daughter should always be his most priceless gift. I do not understand how people can just walk away. It would just destroy me. Sofia Ra March 21, 2017 at 11:52 AM It is scar a child will always have, never fully comprehending the reasoning. Because in truth there is never a reason for it. Thank you for your comment.

Tim Smith March 21, 2017 at 11:39 AM I can never understand how a father can leave a child behind. I will always be there for my kids...lovely Sofia Ra March 21, 2017 at 11:41 AM neither can I, A bond that is supposed to be unbreakable
