Just a memory on a shelf

Just a memory on a shelf

A Poem by Terri Phelps
"

My dad wasn't there for me

"
Where were you dad
You make me so mad
Maybe it's because I love you
That I didn't take a clue
You never seem to care
To me that isn't fair
You were suppose to be my hero
And turned out worse then a zero
Your suppose to wipe away all of my tears
And tell me that I shouldn't have any fears
To be a daughter who isn't complete
I feel like I'm in defeat
What did I do wrong
That makes you want to stay away for so long
I just want your love
But you gave me a shove
Just enough to realize
That everyone you love lie
I know that missing piece inside
Will be the reason why I cried
But I'm done wasting my time
For someone who wouldnt spend a dime
So if you ever get a chance to read this
And you finally realize all those times you miss
Just remember I did this by myself
And your nothing more then a memory on a shelf
