Nobody knows how I feel
Why won't these wounds heal
I've not done anything bad
You're supposed to be my dad
Why did you turn your back
Is it feelings for me you lack
So many questions I want to ask
Though its not such an easy task
You found me after twenty six years
Though still it ended with me in tears
It didn't take me long to see
You never really wanted to know me
Though no answers have been achieved
I'm sure you must feel relieved
Months of silence have been and gone
Though I know I must move on
Time to leave the what, why, how
And live in the here and now
