Daddy why did you go
I came back one day and you said there was something we needed to know
You said you had to leave
I didn’t cry daddy even though it made my heart heave

You and mummy never fought
At least that’s what me and sister thought
Then when you kissed is one last time
That simple act became a crime

Mummy doesn’t even know
Why you let our happy family go
Was this perfect family all too much
Did you need a younger touch?

Are you happy now daddy?
Not with our family but with her and free
Was our simple life holding you back?
Even so it wasn’t right to crack

I know I'm not the only one
Whose life was ripped at the seams whose life came undone
But why did you do this thing to me
Why did you tear me apart daddy

Even though you’re still my father
You’re not daddy now you are with her
I hate you for leaving me that spiteful day
And I hate all the daddies who have left and run away

Very sad write. I wish for you comfort through your rain.

Dani,

I read your profile and I am here to tell you this was indeed very, very good!  You showed emotion and created a story for the reader.  

There is one typo, so in case you don't know, you can correct it within the first 24 hrs of posting it. (click on edit up above the poem).

And since I didn't say it before...welcome to passions!

Susan C.

if you chase it,
it will surely fly away,instead
hold it close and watch it grow into
something beautiful"

Through your writing, you were able to express and share your pain. With the passing of time, that pain will lessen. Fill your life up with things that you enjoy and keep you busy. That may help. In the meantime, write and write and write. Get all that hurt and frustration out of you and down on paper.

Loving healing hugs,
Earth Angel
