You Left Me For No Reason
You had me, you left me, you never cared,
I was your second child and still you weren't prepared.
On the lonely nights when I was sad,
Abandonment leaves wounds that heal slowly and scars that fade even slower. Usually, the effects of abandonment last a lifetime. Only those who have experienced the anguish caused by being abandoned can understand the depth of this feeling and the fear it causes. It causes one to lose their sense of security. It causes one to feel unlovable and suffer from low self-esteem. The fear that abandonment causes in a person will affect all of their future relationships. Fortunately, confiding in a trusted friend can help a person to work through their abandonment issues and cultivate healthy relationships.

I am angry at the world and I often wonder why
I don't want to throw my sorrow on all those who have hurt me

I cry because you weren't there

You left when I was only two,
Daddy had no idea what to do.
You never turned to say bye,
If you had, you would have seen Daddy cry.
I just want to say to the writer of this poem, may God bless you and your family. It's nice to have a mother but not needed. If having her is going to change the way your emotions and heart...

I don't understand why you chose him over me
I was there, or could you just not see.
I would have done everything right,
But instead you chose him, and to stay and fight.

For so many long painful years....
This poem reminds me of my dad and what I still feel even now when I live with him. Never stop writing!

I was 3 or 4 when my daddy left me. Just my mommy by my side. I wondered why he left me. My mommy said I may never know. As I got older I found out more things. I still ask myself why he left...

What you do makes me cry,
But I honestly can't deny
That in my heart I truly love you
You'll always be my only dad....
Hi. I'm 13 and my dad left me 3 years ago. Since I'm a foster kid I go on visits with him but after Christmas he left. It hurts a lot but I hide it. I love your poem. Thank you.

Without you, I survived and grew

But am stuck within the past.
I look toward the future,
With hopes that never last.
