Daddy Wasn't There


Someone once told me When I get older, I will become stronger. Someone once told me When I get older, I will become a winner in life. Someone once told me I can do anything. But now, no one tells me. Someone left without letting me know. No calls or letters or presents To make this horrible time go by. I will never understand why it happens. But my mother once told me, It was best for him to leave.
