DAD
He left me when I was a baby
Before I was even born
But to think he never tried to find me
Makes me shiver through the bone.
Wondering year after year
Whether he would try to find me
The more I thought he had gone forever.
Fifteen years later
He?s back on the scene
He?s made it obvious he?s still as mean.
He walks back in
As though nothing has happened
But I know he will only start
Repeating his pattern.
Whenever I have needed him
He has never been there
And then I have always felt bare.
But now I have got the chance
To get to know him
It all seems too late
Because he cant expect to be able
Too act like my mate.
He can?t just walk back in
And start acting like my old man
Even if he wants too
Or thinks he can.
So much for a decision
Because he made that for me
Fifteen years ago
When he slept in someone else?s bed.
My mind
