My lost dad:

by Emily   Jul 31, 2005


Dear dad,
just writing to tell you somethings,
i think you should know
what I'm gonna tell you is from the heart so......

why dad?
why leave me then come back?
why did you leave me so sad
now Ur love is what i lack

you would come back for a few
you would earn my trust back
then you'd do what you always do
get up and go pack

you would leave me without a sign
leave me in the dark
i thought you were always gonna be mine
i remember you saying i love you at kishwaukee park

i thought i could trust you
with all my heart
i guess you had other things in mind
you just tore me apart

some of the good times
are fading away
I'm just trying to imagine a hug from you
I'm forgetting more about you each day

i don't think i could trust you
like i did before
because you would just leave me
i just want you to be around now
what you've done to me is all i want you to see!

my dad left us many times and keeps coming back but now he hasn't came back for almost 3 years and i just wanted to get my feelings out on paper so i did and now i feel better. wasn't sure if i should post this but i did anyways plz comment ill return the fav!!!

    That was really good. I'm sorry that your dad did that. I've never had that happen to me, but I know it must be painful. Just hang in there. Keep writing. Take care and God bless.

    Oh that is so sad. I'm so blessed that my dad has never done that to my family. I'll be praying for you.
