I've always wondered why you left me
and why you were not there
my first word wasn't daddy,
but I guess you wouldn't care
I wonder if you miss me
and wonder like I do
I know you have a new kid
and you left her too,
but atleast she knows you
and doesn't wonder as I do
I wonder if we look alike
share eyes and ears and nose
I wonder if you think of me
as I often think of you
I have a dad, but he's not you
he's nice and sweet and kind
he's there when I need him most
unlike you in all ways
mama says that you were sweet,
but that is hard to see
'cause when you leave a loved one
your respect does tend to flee.
