HE LEFT ME ALONE


The light was gone


It had withered and died


He lay there so still


I just stood there and cried.


He had no feelings


I had been hurt


He stood at the top


While I knelt in the dirt.


He stared blankly ahead


My vision was broken


He spoke not a word


Left not even a token.


He left me alone


I cried and I cried


He left me alone


My father has died.
