Ocean of Thoughts

Hey Mom, Hey Dad

This reminds me of the memories in my old home. Please listen to the whole song, it's honestly very good. Sorry for the semi-long poem.

Hey Mom, Hey Dad,

When did you lose you happiness
I'm all alone
While you're fighting it out
In this broken home

I watched your back as you left
As you slipped out the door
My heart fell as well
I let the tears fall

I ran to my room
Which wasn't a room at all
It had no door
Old creaky floors

I let the tears fall
As I held my teddy bear
He was all I had
Mommy came in

She packed me a bag
And carried a small suitcase
She scooped me up
And we left

Grandma and Pop
Let us in
They were both crying
Mommy had boo-boos

I wasn't sure what was happening
I knew dad was gone
But he always left 
After yelling and screaming

But this time
We didn't go back home
We stayed at Grandma's house
And Daddy didn't show for months

Mommy had said
Daddy will pick you up on the weekends
But he never did
His truck was never there

Mommy took me over to my other grandma's
To see him
But he said I should go
So I did

I watched as he closed the door
And I walked back to Mommy
Watching her eyes fill with Tears
Yelling at him to visit me

Sometimes he'd pick me up
On my birthday
No presents were given
But Daddy was happy so it was okay

And every year I waited
For each promise to come true
But each year I lost hope
And soon

He faded out of my life
He left me alone
With nothing
With lost hope

And that's where I am now
Stuck with broken promises
And lost hope
Stuck without Daddy
