Why Daddy??

By amphibianrose

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Daddy doesn't visit, he's always been near. Everybody has daddies He doesn't love me I fear. Holiday and birthdays go right on by. No call, No card. Picking up a phone and dialing, My gosh, is it that hard? When I ask my mommy, will he ever come and see me? She smiles, and hugs me tight and says "Things that will be will be". Now I don't call him Daddy, I call him by his name. When he had a girlfriend, she's the only one that came. He's working somewhere out of town. He sends no support my way. Does he care about me at all? I don't know til this day. When I grow up, and realize. My mom was always there. Will he try to see me then? I wonder if he'll dare. Wherever you are, I hope you realize one day that I needed you. Chance Written March 12th, 2002 © on Mar 12 2002 03:34 AM PST   0 • 10
