Daddy's Tears

Is hate still clinging onto me
that same bitterness throughout the years?
I think of my part of the story
but do I think of daddy's tears?

That perhaps he would also feel
some piece of this pain
gazing out the window
and watching the rain.

would his smile still be sunny
and his rejoice rings the same?
that adaption comes so easily
and he'd feel no tinge of blame?

and somehow no-one would notice
the aching of his yen?
Oh, daddy, please don't cry
will you ever laugh again?

I hate to see us all suffer
over the same goodbye
Promise to see us soon
and Daddy, please don't cry.

Author notes

even though I felt bitter that our dad left us for sum1 else, i think he also feels the pain, and he misses us too. does bad things make us bitter or better??

    These words are very sad - To not share your years with either one of your parents is a tragic loss, and years of sadness.
    I can relate.
    nice poem.
