It Is So Sad
by Joe CramerIt is so sad
when I am no longer
your Dad
and instead
I am just a ride
a couple of dollars
here or there,
a birthday present,
Christmas gifts
sometimes your friend
but never your confidant.
I miss you. 10/31/2011 Author's Note: ... Emily is 15 now, I rarely see her.....

| Posted by Alison McKenzie on 11/01/11 at 03:18 AM I'm sorry to hear that Joe. I mean, they all grow "away" and off to do their own things. But if you've been a "non-custodial" parent, it can really hurt when the bond thins. But sometimes, they drift back into the bond as adults. It's a new dimension to the relationship, but it can be very lovely. I hope this for you and Emily. |
