Abandoned 

Its not that you died

Its just that youre gone

You chose to leave me here

You decided i wasnt enough


So go one with your life

But remember my name

Ill always remember yours

And how it killed you to stay


So maybe you are dead

But only to me

Youll move on and grow

With bittersweet memories


When you think of my face

I hope you see me angry

Resentment is familiar 

Know that thats how you made me


So hold them close 

Commitment is hard

For someone whos never tried

“Dad” never sat right in my heart
