You don't know, soon I'll be a college graduate. you were the person I talked about,   when it came to succeeding. Not because of, but in spite. You don't know that I am in love. The man treats me like a princess, better than you, ever even hinted at. You don't know, that I whispered: "I wish I had a daddy." As he picked out a birthday card for his father. And I cried in the aisle of Walmart. You don't know I had so much love to give you. You could have been so proud of me. I would have been so...much. Now I just push the idea of you away. Trying not to remember, that most have fathers. Around. And the saddest part. I cannot get closure, when you never really even started anything, for me to end.
