Where were you when I needed you?

Where were you when I needed you? When confusion was all I saw as a little child When our family was being torn apart when life gave me no reason to smile... Where were you when I needed you to tell me everything’s going to be alright? Where were you when I needed you to take away my lonely nights? As a kid there was times I needed a hand to hold When darkness filled my mind When darkness was all time sold and my head was filled with lies. I appreciate the toys and money you gave but that couldn’t bring a smile. You called me useless, stupid and all sorts of names I’m so sorry that I was made your child I’m sorry that I disappointed you again! But where you when I needed you, to help me through the rain? I needed someone to help me with my school work But yet again alone I tried and tried. Embarrassed because I couldn’t read in grade three The joke of the class again I was but the reason they just couldn’t see! Head filled with lie’s, lie’s was all I could tell I did not want them to know what I’m going through Showing how you felt was not so ‘cool’'. Where were you when I needed you to hear my hearts deepest cry? You weren’t there when I needed you? Now you know why I died inside! Done by: Angelo Hedley
