I wrote this a few weeks ago.

At once, you were gone.

Finally coming to peace
Before, the anger never seemed to cease
Years of pain and struggle,
Only to find you gone

Taken away at first,
Numb to the root of my bone.
Afraid alone and silent
Because you had just gone

No goodbye or see you later,
No Im sorry or even I love you
Silence; quite enough to hear my own silent sobs

You told, me you'd always be there
To wipe away my tears,
To love me,
To laugh with me,
To just be there

Why did you decide to leave that all behind
When you left, you not only left dad...
You left me

You left the one person you've hurt all of her life
You left a child, hopelessly facing the world
Feeling alone, and not loved

You left the one person,
Who only wanted the best for you
The one person, who would forgive you for anything

At once, you were gone....
I've accepted and moved on
I'm not "that" girl that you left

Because the girl you left,
The one crying all the time,
Has replaced those tears with laughs

The one who was afraid of trust,
Is learning slowly to trust again


The one you called daughter,
Is learning to be called, God-Mother instead
Because she knows, that title will never leave her

The one who felt alone
Woke up to reality
And now knows she is the farthest thing from alone

At once, you were gone, and everything seemed chaotic,
At once you were gone and now it’s four months later,
And everything…… is just perfect.
