Whose my dad?

May 19, 2010
By Anonymous

The last time I saw you,
I was just a little girl,
and you were my everything,
Even my world.

You promised to come back,
Too bad it was all an act,
I didn't see through your facade,
You know you made your mistake.

As years travel by,
and your words are still full of lies,
Now im almost grown,
Even though your love was never shown.

I notice now I am no longer craving your love,
Now I know you were no angel from above,
So thank you dad,
A real father is what I never had

My father had abandoned me and my mother for many years. He always used to come back into my life with open arms and promising words. Sooner or later I understood his words were empty promises. So girls with daddy problems, dont feel bad. I've been there and I grew up into a fine young lady.

You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don&#039;t worry be happy! :)
