Why did it happen to me?
I always said it wouldn’t be.
My family wasnt perfect but i wasn’t gunna let it end this way.
Parents are supposed to love each other, and their children.

Why he left, I still don’t know.
Was it me?
Was it my mum?
My brothers?
My sister?
He must have had a good enough reason.

He still says he loves me and the rest of us kids
Why do I disapoint him then?
Why does he look at me with hate in his eyes?

Why did the rest of my family follow him and leave me
Im all alone and nobody can see that my family is broken
They just think im overdramatic and want attention.
Yes I want attention, but not from them from the people who are supposed to love me

He acts as if he done nothing wrong
He thinks I still love him as much as I did when I was a kid
Well I don’t
He left me so he has got to deal with me hating him for it
I was 8! I needed my dad

He was never there for me when I needed him
He never listen to me
He just yelled and hurt me
Not physicly but emotionly

Im scarred for life
Because of what he done
He doesn’t know about anything I had to deal with growing up
He doesn’t know how hard it is to act strong when I just want to cry

I don’t let anyone in anymore
Im scared they will leave me like him
I don’t let anyone know whats wrong with me
If people ask I fake a smile and say im fine
I just want one person to look me in the eyes and tell me to tell the truth.

In a way this has made me stronger
but in others im a scared 8 year old girl who wants her dad to come back from work.

I still cry myself to sleep at night because of him
It happened 7 years ago
Why cant I get over it already?
When I was younger he used to tell me that I could be whatever I wanted to be
But now if I tell him my dreams he laughs and tells me that will never happen
Or he tells me to be something he wants me to be

I will never forgive him for leaving me and my family
But he will always be my father so I better get used to the idea of him leaving.
