I sat there crying, lonely on my bed
as my mom walked in, with tears of dread.
She said he'd come back,
and not to cry.
I sat up and smiled
my small sad smile
believeing the lies she said.
Two long weeks later
He finally came back
A large smile on his face
as he hugged her, not telling her
he just needed a place to crash.
He walked in the living room
Jumping on the couch
and sitting beside me,
I smiled back up at him,
with a small greeting
"Welcome home, how was your vacation?
He just sat there for a minute,
a blank look on his face
when he suddenly smiled
and said "It was great."
sadly a few days later
He walked out the door
again not smiling at all
When I remembered that night
he said he couldn't take it anymore.
I sat in the bathroom crying for an hour
when My mom finally came in, and asked
"Whats the matter?"
I just looked up at her, tears falling down my face.
I didn't say anything,
I didn't need to,
she hugged me tight a tear or two
falling from her blue glassy eyes.
"He's not coming back."
is all she said as we sat there
silently crying.
She tried to take him away from me
From us actually.
Who would take away two kids
dad?
Even if he did some bad things.
Sometimes thats what war can do to you,
It can mess up your head.
But a few years later
I know it was for the best.
Yes they got divorced,
Yes I almost lost him,
My father,
My dad.
But he won the fight,
and I still get to see him.
I guess thats pretty
tramatical to happen,
But like I said it was for the best.
They are both with people who love them.
But still, I wonder at night
what drove dad away from my mom
who loved him so?

Description:
Yes, this is a true story.
My parents are divorced and my mom tried to make it so I wouldn't be able to ever see my dad again, luckily the judhe was sympthetic and lets me see him, even if it is just every other weekend.
My mom got remarried, so did my dad.
At first I wasn't to thrilled to have a step-dad, but i was thrilled to have a step-mom.
But now i know that it's best to have someone to love, even if it was on a second try. - Date: 11/25/2009
