Farewell to Father

I know owe me not a thing

But what you did brought me so much pain.

You were supposed to be my Father

But you made me feel as though I was just a bother.

You said you would always be there for me

Instead you left and the rest was history.

You left without saying a thing

Which just deepened the pain.

But your silence spoke more than any book

One year was all it took.

I should have seen the signs

I should have known it was a matter of time.

Where ever you end up I really hope you are happy

I just wish you had stopped to say one last goodbye to me.

So even if we are worlds apart

And you forget me in your fresh start.

I will still love you with all of my heart

Because you played your part.

For you were there when I was in need

And would smile when you saw me succeed

You were there when I fell

Even when I gave you hell.

You protected me when from the monster beneath the bed

And when I was to far in my own head.

You taught me how to be tough

And held me when it got rough.

So you may never walk me down the isle

Or be there to see your grandbaby smile.

But I glad you were there at all

And Ill pick up if you ever want to call.
