You were never there
Not when I needed you.
Remember when I lost my first tooth?
No, becuase you didn't care.
All those years I was alone.
Remember when I learned to ride my bike?
Or when I first flew a kite?
No, because I was on my own.
Remember when I got my first Mustang?
I crashed it in the first 3 hours.
You remember how it began to shower?
No, because maybe you were ashamed.
Will you remember this day?
Remember when I leave home?
Off to collge I go.
No, because those memories don't go away.
You were never there.
You can't make up for 18 years.
You never saved me from those old past fears.
You can' t all of a sudden care.
Thats not the way it works.
I'm sorry, no.
Never again say hello.
For too much, Dad, it hurts.

This is such an emotional poem. It's very good. I'm sorry you had to go through something like that in your life. Thank you for sharing. |

I really liked this poem, because it expressed my own thoughts, im not sure. I know how you feel, I grew up without a dad, and when i did have a father figure, he tried too hard, and i resented him for it, escpecially when now i don't need a father, not after so long of not having one. I really appreciate and understand the pains and anger and frustrations in this poem. My heart goes to you. Keep up the good work!
