Wishes for a selfish dad...

Today is my dad's birthday and i miss him so much.
I miss the times when he would take us to work and let us ride the train with him.
I miss the times when he would pick us up in his embarrassingly big old car.
I miss the times when he would come and hold me after a scary dream.

Today is my dad's birthday and i miss him so much.
I miss the days when i was 10 years old and he was my hero.
I miss the days when i was 10 and he held my hand wherever we went - protecting me.
I miss the days when he would say that he loved me.

Today is my dad's birthday and i am so angry.
I phoned to wish him a happy birthday - but he didn't care.
I phoned to tell him i love him - but no love was there.
I phoned to tell him i miss him...that i forgive him...
I phoned in vain as the love that was once there is...i dunno where!?

So dad...here i sit with tears in my heart and streaming down my face.
I miss you and i love you.
