Cassandra Escobar Poem
i never wouldve thought you'd leave me,
i wanted you by my side,
no Daddy when i was little,
to hug me when i cried.
you left me all alone,
you left me here to fall,
it was mommy always catching me,
cuz you didnt care at all.
you left me here confused,
not even 3 years old,
i grew up knowing nothing,
cuz about you i was never told.
my friends ..they all had daddys.
to hold their little hand,
but i was there alone,
cuz you couldnt be a man.
when fathers day came around,
i didnt know where you were,
i couldnt send you the card i made,
cuz if you were alive i wasnt sure.
my friend says shes a Daddys girl,
i didnt even know what that meant,
she says shes always with her Daddy,
but a day with you ive never spent.
i thought to myself..i cant call myself a Daddys girl,
cuz its just been me and mom,
my older brother was there too,
to teach me right from wrong.
what made you go and ditch me,
was i just a big mistake?,
i didnt have my "Daddy",
theres only so much a Daughter can take.
you didnt call for my birthday,
did you happen to forget it?,
cuz i never forgot about you Dad,
not even for a minute.
So im older now,
eighteen years on my own,
cuz you werent there throughout the years,
so now im fully grown.
you were never here for anything,
you didnt even meet my prom date,
ive accomplished so much Dad,
you didnt even see me graduate.
ive met the love of my life Dad,
he really makes me smile,
but i dont know where on earth you are,
so i guess you cant walk me down the aisle.
dont bother coming around now,
dont even try to apologize,
i dont ever wanna meet you now,
cuz i know you wont look me in the eyes.
its ok Dad dont worry about me,
cuz im a lady now...im grown,
i learned to succeed without you,
since you left me all alone.
So i guess this is goodbye now,
this is the ending of my poem to you,
Antonio Escobar was your name,
your the "Dad" i never knew.
