Daddy

A child view on what happens to the child and what the child becomes as an adult

Daddy why didn't you hold my hand, when I ask you to

Why did you leave us

Did you not love us anymore

Was we not your pride and joy

Did you not care for us anymore

Why didn't you call or visit

Do you know what this done to me

I thought i did something bad and I wanted to fix it

You know it took me years to realize I didn't do anything wrong

You know what we did fine without you

Then you come to me years later and try to be the daddy you were suppose to be

I think you wanted me to tell you that I love you

But you didn't here it from me

I know I am suppose to honor my father

But I can't

I know I am suppose love my father 

But I can't

So daddy guess what I don't love or care for you one bit

And you know what you made me this way

Author's Note

I know it is harsh, but it is my true feelings.

yeah wow harsh ... but how to qualify what is inside?

each of us has our lessons I suppose, we all do try and do the best with what has been given to us, even if it does not always seem that way ... I wonder, what was daddy's parents like to make him so absent in the life that you mention. Life is funny how it conditions us and our rights and wrongs often vary ..

you wrote what is in your heart .. even though harsh you feelings do jump right out and tell us how you feel ...

LOVE, PEACE & HAPPINESS to you

Thanks for the review. I had to get it out, because I wanted to move on and be free of the pain that was caused. His parents helped him out by hiding him, when we needed him. They apologized to us later after we were out of school. But I am starting to be free from it now.

I am so happy to hear that you are finding your own peace ... we can waste so much of our lives living with anger .. love xx

That had to have been tough; but you captured the feeling of abandonment so well!

Thanks for the review, it was tough. I got through it. In a way it made me a better person, but it also made me have issues with trusting people that I met when I was younger.
