“Daddy, why did you have to leave me?
Why did you have to die?
It seems as though you left me here,
To look out to sea and cry.
I only wanted for you to let me,
Go out to sea with you,
I wanted you to say you loved me,
And I'd say that I do too.
I came out here to write this poem,
And think about you, Dad.
'Cause you were my only hope,
You were all I had.
Tomorrow I'll go to the Stuart's,
But I want to let you know,
That I really do love you, Daddy,
'Cause I'm my Daddy's girl.”

Very sad and deep. This is a great poem.

Aww, what a deep, sad, poem. It's beautiful. If this is true, well done. If this is at the top of your mind, well done. I liked the simple rhyming and stanzas, because they sit there so plainly, but have alot of truth. Great work! :) ~Pixie~

Wow, that picture really did inspire you. It looks a lot like what you write here. Nicely done.
