Do I know you?
Just a few hours ago,
You and I were laughing.
Teasing my mother about something silly.
Then you changed.
One second you were my dad,
And the next you were a stranger.
It scares me.
Where did you go?
I don’t know what to think of you now.
Just a few hours ago,
You were my everything.
Now..
Now I don’t know you.
You brushed it off,
But I will remember.
Your not who I thought you were.
And maybe that’s my fault.
I always tried to think of you as perfect.
The man who could do no wrong.
I never expected it.
I want to forget,
To pretend you didn’t say that.
Maybe I can find you in this stranger.
If I can justify why you said it.
I don’t know what I’ll do.
So for now,
I will cry.
Because I miss you.
