she held his hand tight
begging him not
to leave.
tears spilled from her eyes.
she tried so hard,
she told him
she loved him,
but maybe he didn't
love her.
still she begged and pulled
at his bags
and his hands
the same hands that held her
and threw her in the air
as she giggled
she tired her best
but he left.
slamming the door
on her face
and not hearing her say,
"daddy, please
i love you"
