Why I Will Be Angry For A While Poem by Kristi Wilkinson

Why you had to go
Nobody will ever know.
I miss you father
More and more everyday
Someday I may understand
Why this happened and
The reasons you had to go away.
I am much to young to carry this burden
Of not having a father
When I need one the most,
Who's going to teach me all about
Lifes lessons when I need those the most?
I am only 17 why did you leave me?
I would take everything back
If you would come back just for
One more evening.
The future and trust
Went out the door
Whe you died at dusk.
Do you think it is wrong of me
Not to smile,
I just need you to understand
Why I will be angry with you for a while.
