Why did you leave me dad?
nothing you ever said or did was true.
I was just a child,
innocent,
loving
and a daddys girl too!
All i ever wanted was for you to love me,
but you left without a word
not even so much as sorry!
Why don't you love me dad?
Did i say something wrong?
Did i do something bad?
Nothing could replace you,
you were all i ever wanted
and all i never had!
All i ever wanted was for you to love me,
but you left without a word
not ever so much as sorry!
Why can't i find you dad?
where did you go?
what is it that you do?
there is so much that i want to tell you,
so much i want you to know,
Please Daddy, i need to find you !
All i ever wanted was for you to love me,
but you left without a word
not even so much as goodbye!
Author notes
My father left when i was a small child without a word, and never returned and i have never been able to find him since, it is as though he disappeared off the face of the earth.

A very sad and heartfelt write wonderfully written though the wording is terrific the flow was great ,it is a sad day when any father would run off on their own child I could never imagine not seeing my children I cant imagine how this made you feel i never knew my father and sadly usually when people vanish its because they dont want to be found any guy cam father a kid but it takes a real man to be a DAD this was a truely great write amazing job!
