Missing You Poem

A girl writes an anguished plea to her dad. Come back into our lives we need you!

A Needed Dad

© Cassandra L. Welsh
Did you know that no matter what you are my dad,
And with out you I’m very sad?

I miss the way we use to have fun,
Playing all hours with or without the sun.

I want you to be the one to walk down the aisle with me,
My real dad I want everyone to see.

Time will heal these scars,
I can see it written in the stars.

We will all wait for you,
Because we all still love you too.

Can you see through our teary eyes,
Can you see all our past cries?

I want to live a new life,
Without all this pain and strife.

I am willing to try real hard, are you?
Or do you want to forget us and be totally through?

I want you to be my dad,
I want to be loved and not be bad.

You are the light at the end of my tunnel,
Without you our lives drains into nothing through a funnel.

When I talk to you on the phone,
My heart is not alone.

I'm sorry things turned out this way,
I look to the ceiling while in my bed I lay.

I hope this is not the way it will stay,
And it hurts because all I can do is pray.

Will your heart ever give in?
I give up you win..

It's your choice now,
To answer only your heart knows how.
Don't let your mind cover your heart to hide,
Let your heart truly decide.

I don't know what you want from us now,
But I'm willing to try if you show me how.

Please find a way to trust once more,
Get to know the new us before you say no,

Listen to us and let your new feelings show.
We have all been really trying,
And we need you to stop our hearts from crying..

So I ask, will you be there?
Are you still my dad?
Do you still care?

I need us to be a family again forever,
Love us and never say never.
We all love you and hope you love us too.

  • Daddy, I miss you all the time you are my mentor and I will never let you go. I hope you back to see me and my brother because we both miss you so much.
