This is a poem based on my father who passed away two years ago. He wasnt a very good role model and this poem was based on a relief, which some people may find hard to believe, but you haven’t lived it. Here it is…

Dad,

2 years now since you passed away Now at peace you are to lay.

I miss you dearly I loved you a lot

But a new feeling this is not. 

You wasn’t exactly a devoted Dad,

But you were the only one I had. 

Theres so many things you should’ve done,

Had more respect for us and for mum. 

I hate you for the things you did in the past,

From the first day right up to the last. 

You had so many chances and never changed,

Everyone else you always blamed. 

Why didn’t you listen why didn’t you care?

All of those times and why weren’t you there?

How could you let each day pass you by,

All of these questions I still wonder why

Now your not here to reply

Even if you was you’d probably lie?

Not enough love did you ever show,

All of these answers I never will know. 

I wish I could say this to your face. 

Now my life’s a better place!
