Dad
It’s about when my father left my life, but a few years later returned...
Who is that man?
Whom I call: dad
He was unknown to me
For so many years
He left me alone
He left me afraid
He left me completely
Without his embrace
He used to
Comfort me always
He used to be
At my side
But all that changed
Seven years ago
I was ten, still young
And he just said; I have to go
I couldn’t understand
How could I
I was just a boy
Not anymore
I know why he went
He couldn’t find a job
Well you know what
I don’t care anymore
I am happy now
I’ve forgotten the past
And welcomed the future
With open arms
He may not be at my side
But he is in spirit
May he be safe
In this world unhidden
