I entered his life many years ago He held me so gentle and kind Looking into his eyes I saw the love No other man could I find I spent all my time with this man Laughing and talking by the lake He knew everything about me While with him I never had to be fake He encouraged me to be the best No matter how high the hurdles I found To never let sarcasm get me sad To only listen to my heart's sound Then one day he stood up And told me of his plans to leave I did nothing but sit and cry For all this I could not believe I'll never forget the day he walked out For my happiness had turned so sad The thought and the memories The day I said "Good-Bye Dad!' Once there was a darkness Deep and endless night You gave me everything you had Ahhhhhh you gave me light |

Wow! What a beautiful poem. Is it about you? Don't you see your dad anymore? I wish I could write a poem like that about my dad, but he was never particularly nice, and he never said goodbye either!

Yes this is about me and my Dad. He left a few years ago wanting to start a new life with his Mistress (now his wife). At the time he left behind his wife, kids and grandkids. I ust figure someday he will be sorry.  Peace Once there was a darkness Deep and endless night You gave me everything you had Ahhhhhh you gave me light |

DkW...It's especially difficult when someone does something we don't understand. Circumstance is everything. But I'm sure he still loves you.....his life just took a different direction. You expressed it well....nicely done. Hardrock |

My dad did the same thing. Except he hasn't got any grandchildren (yet). He even got another kid of his own when he was 66. I'm sorry to warble on like this, but I just thought you'd like to know that I uderstand how you feel. Lotharingia "For God's sake, he's a poet. Poets are meant to feel miserable.
