Lies is what you tell me
Pain is what you bring
Hurt is what's left
Your trying to destroy me

Love is what I keeping givin' you
Hope is all gone
Trust left along time ago

You made up in your mind
Not to be a dad

I know in my heart
That your love is something
I never had....

sad, I'm sorry you had to endure that. It's always sad when you are so young a loved one leaves, by choice and sometimes not. my dad passed away when I was 16, I'm 29 now and I didn't even really know him, he wasn't trying to be a father to me or my brothers and he died so suddenly, I always hoped that he would realize his mistakes and chose us, want to have a relationship with us but I never got that chance. I pray you do. You be strong and keep writing....excellent write...tyesha

Very painful and heart wrenching write. You painted the pain of want and neglect very effectively. Great work!
