Where were you...
When I needed you?
When I woke up crying in the middle of the night?
Where were you through all the fights?
Where were you when I wanted to see you?
Where were you when I called your phone hoping to hang out with you?
Where were you when I wanted to be with you?
Where were you?
I guess It is how it seems.
You cant make your dad love you if he can't even love himself.

The author's comments:
I wrote this about my father. It is clear we don't have the best relationship. There is nothing you can do about a person that doesn't want to take responsibility for his life time actions (being a father)
