To My Father

Where did you go?
You left my life dim,
where have you been.
I tryed to keep in touch,
but you never gave me much.
Love is all I needed.
Happiness is all, I wanted.
You brushed me off,
like I was a nobody.
How could you do that,
to someone you used to call "your little girl".
We used to go fishing, hunting and more,
but now your just a bore.
At night I get week,
and cry myself to sleep.
Now you have a new family,
and you push me away.
Why do you treat me this way?

Nice write, I can feel your pain. I hope someday he will see it before you both have grown too far apart. Good luck in your writing endeavors, keep writing, it helps. Caryl
