My heart aches, Dad,
For the things you won't do.
My soul breaks, Dad,
For all that we've been through.

Hey Daddy,
There are a couple of things I think you missed
So write this down, make a little list.
This poem was a major speaker of my feelings toward my father who at this time is not present in my life. I resent him for all the emotional and physical abuse, but I often catch myself...
You broke my trust for you
Just as you broke your promises.
You broke my love for you
Just as you can break a twig.
I can relate. My Dad is an alcoholic and he has crushed my heart. He has broken me beyond repair.

It seems like only yesterday
You wiped away my tears
As I called your name
To fight away my fears.
Dear Father,
On this day I have nothing to look back at and reminisce. My memories of you are few. I can count on my fingers the times I have seen you, less than that the times we have...
I'm sorry you missed the day I came home.
I'm sorry you left my Mum all alone.
I'm sorry you missed the first time I walked.
And I'm sorry you missed the first time I talked.
My dad left the house when I was 5 years old and he told me that he would never be coming back. I remember he told me to go to back to bed. When I woke up in the morning he was gone. I felt...
How long has it been since you wrapped me
in those strong and tough arms of yours?
How long are you gonna wait
to tell me that you are proud of me?...

where were you when I was all alone
why weren't you here after I begged you to come home

I had enough people to hurt me...
I wish I had a normal father just like my friends. A loving and caring support. Dad, you've done so much damage to me. It might not be visible to you since the scars you left are internal,...

Dad,
Why won't you listen to me?
Please hear my silent plea you so often ignore.
Why can't you see my pain?
I grew up with my dad by my side he was my everything but when I was 7 it all changed he left me for another girl. When I was supposed to be his pride and joy my life went to hell I raised...

Does my daddy love me when he doesn't talk to me?
Does my daddy love me when he doesn't spend time with me?
Does my daddy love me when he doesn't make me feel special?
Does my daddy love me when he doesn't call me see how I'm doing?
My Dad sometimes doesn't seem to even care about me. He hasn't chosen to be in my life or my brother and sisters lives for many years. When he was he hurt my brother and made fun of my...
