Basically you are just a distant relative to me
Usually you only come around at your own convenience
To pretend as if you care about what has changed since your last visit.
While I’m at home wishing you could feel the love your kid has for you at
Home wondering what’s the point of even calling you Daddy if
You can’t even act as if your child exist?
Don’t you remember that you promised my Mother forever
And that day I was born you held me and said,
“Don’t worry about a thing” cause you would always be there.
Days later you could not be found anywhere.
Yet years later you come back as if I was born yesterday.
When it all comes down to it
Here I am an adult all grown up all though
You are back in my life, I still wonder…
Why Daddy? Why?
Mos def can relate to this scribe. I learned to stop askinq why when I couldn't make up anothere xcuse for him a lonq lonq time aqo. I'm just breezin' nnow so it's k00.
nicely written
I felt this in every sense of the word. Been through it. Daughter's currently going through it though God-willing, she won't be for long. A story with a melancholy bind that far too many experience. When I saw the poem category, didn't know if you would be able to pull it off effectively. You did a great job though!
The best acrostic that I have come across thus far. You sound like the quiet genius. Great work. I am slowly chekkin out your writz. You are quietly hitten them in the head. I a have a few daddy writes that I need to get up myself. My dad wasn't their either not to mention a few million other folks like us who experienced the same thing. Keep up the good shiiiiiiet. Be bakk.
You know what i dont know what it is about a deadbeat dad...that they feel when there a phone away they was there,like my dad and now he's back at home with my mother like he never left,powerful write
