Fathers Day Poem

A girl's plea to her father: You were in my life and now you're not, it breaks my heart that you're not here for me.

Happy Father's Day

© Dawn-Marie Knudsen
When I was just a little kid I knew you worried.
You worried about what would happen to me.
Though you never raised me you were always there.
There when I needed you.
There when I needed to cry.
When I needed you for my pain and hurt.
When I needed a father it was you by my side.
Daddy I needed a father like you.

It's Father's Day and you're not there.
I love you and need you but you don't care.
I need a father to lift me up when I am down.
But when I look you're not around.
Nobody likes to live alone.
Without a dad in the home.
Daddy I need you in my life.
Without you my heart feels like it was hit with a knife.
