I waited each night, by the window in the moonlight, for you to come home, and tuck me in tight. I waited, and waited, putting up quite a fight, because I refused to believe my daddy would leave me in fright. Mommy would come in, and kiss me goodnight. She would tell me, my daddy loves me, but he's not coming home tonight. I waited, and waited, until a quarter past midnight. That's when I realized, mommy was right.
These are the words I wish I could say to you, but I can't.
