why did you have to leave us.

by vicki
(u.s.a)

I remember when you were here
there were no problems or worries.

I remember when you left
everything fell apart.

I remember when mother cried
yet she acted so strong.

I remember when it was christman
the only thing on my list was you.

i remember every birthday and every candle
i wished for you.

I remember when id call begging you to return
you had no idea how much it hurt.

i remember when id choked back tears
Every time you let me down.

I remember when you avoided all contact with me
you left to a new country.

i remember when you were my father
i only wish to be your daughter.
