Dear Dad,

February 7, 2018

Dear Dad, 

I wish you would have stayed,

I wish you have cared.

You never gave me the chance to know you,

you never even had a clue.

You were not perfect, this I know

but you still made decisions that made you go.

Do you think the drugs were worth it now,

now that you have been gone for 11 years?

Dear Dad, 

I wish you wouldn't have been selfish,

And I wish you would have cared.
