Why do you not care

Why do you not care...
that your children...
are all alone...

without a father...
to see them grow...
into the people...

that society needs...
now a days...
why do you not care...

that your children...
are grieving over...
the loss of their mother...

and need a shoulder...
to cry on...
and a father there...

to take their hand...
to show them the way...
and to tell them...

that everything...
is going to be okay...
but you are not there...

why do you not care...
do you not see...
the pain and sorrow...

in your children's eyes...
wanting you...
in their lives...

as you push them away...
like they don't deserve...
to have your love...

although you are...
half the reason...
they are here today...

when they had...
their mom pass away...
you had promised to be there...

for ever and always...
for as long as they...
needed you...

after all you are...
their father...
i don't understand...

how could you...
be so mean...
be so cruel...

how could you make...
innocent children...
suffer the way we do...

when we were born...
you had promised us...
that you would always...

be there for us...
when skies were Grey...
and now i turn around...

to see you turn your back...
on me and my brother...
why do you not care...

as though we were a...
big mistake to you...
my brother was the one...

who took me in...
when i had no...
place to go...

he treated me as though...
he was my father...
like the one...

i was longing to have...
alot of years have past...
and still no word from you...

from when i needed you the most...
you told me i could call...
if i ever needed...

even if i...
just felt like...
saying hi...

even though you are...
half of me...
and part of the reason...

that i am here today...
but i never saw you...
so why should i...

classify you as my dad...
when you were never...
there for me...

when i needed...
you the most...
i could never find you...

my eyes are...
filled with tears...
that i wish you could see...

see how much...
this is hurting me...
not having you...

to see me grow...
ad start a family...
but what am i thinking...

i thought you were a man...
but i guess now i see...
your nothing but a boy to me...

i just don't understand...
how could you do this...
to us...

please daddy please...
how could you...
do this to me....
