Why I Cry

Contributed by Karlee14 on Sunday, 18th June 2006 @ 03:48:02 PM in AEST
Topic: FathersDayPoems



You were never here for me.
You never cared.
You left me here to rot.
Though I suppose it's not your fault.

Why do I cry?
I never had you,
I shouldn't miss you like I do.
You never tucked me into bed,
Or even watched me lay down my head.

I need you,
And I can't have you.
I'm missing something deep inside me,
A part of me I'll never feel.
And I suppose that's my fault.

Why do I cry?
If I never had anything.
I feel like I've lost something.
Something I've never had.
I lock this deep inside me.
And hope it never comes out.

I can't run away from it.
It's always here.
The feeling of emptiness.
I need you and it scares me.
And I guess that's your fault.

Why do I cry?
When everything wants to die.
Happiness seems so far away.
Something I can't hold onto.
And I miss you.
Though I've never had you.
Though you never watched me grow.
Into the mess I have become.
Though you never saw my first step,
Or heard my first word.
I don't love you,
I've never had the chance.
I don't know you,
For you were never around.
And I guess..
This is why I cry.

This is a good write and I know how you feel I went through something very similar and I still cry, to. I dont think it's ever possible to stop. The best we can do is learn from their mistakes.

I literally got the chills, that was great!
I like the format!
I can relate and I especially love the ending!
"I don't love you,
I've never had the chance."
Perfect!
