Everything Under the Moon

you keep telling me

there is nothing weird about you

not calling me

there's nothing weird about you

moving halfway across the country

that's what they all do

move to california

party hard, it's not like your too old

you keep telling me that you

have to move on from her

but that you'll always

be there for me

every time I see you

(which has become kind of

rare)

you tell me that as soon as

you're over her

you'll come home

the last time i visited you

the moans coming from your room

the house you share with the

new her

made me kind of doubt

that you still cry at night

I'll be home soon,

I promise you, baby

I know you miss me

I miss you too

but it's okay

don't come home

because there's nothing

to come home too

this actually

isn't really your home anymore,

is it?

I stopped missing you

but don't apologize

don't feel bad

it's not like you're

my dad or anything

statistics today show

that dad's leaving their daughters

for another notch on their beds

isn't weird or anything

thank you. and yes :]

I really like your poem. My father left my mother whenI was very young, so I can relate to it.

That was really good. You're talented at writing, I can tell. It made me want to cry.... But it was very good!!
