I look at the sky
and realize that I can't fly
I can't escape this place
or forget his face
I wipe away the tears
but I still haven't overcome my fears
I know he's still out there
but does he still care?

The author's comments:
This was my way of venting about how I miss my father and how he doesn't take part in my life anymore. I know that he loves me at least a little because I am his child but his absence since I was three has left me confused. Is there anyone that can relate?
