Father's Day~

For Those Who Have Never Known Their Birth Father

iola reneau
Gifts
Cards
Gratitude
Emptiness
Reminding me of you,
Empty heart
Torn Apart
Looking longingly at rows of cards
I never open
I never buy
I never cry
No reason to
You never were
Giggling girl squeals
"This one,"
I turn from them
Wonder what she found?
What reminded her of him?
Rejection
Loss
Emptiness
The legacy of the father who never was
No reason to read cards
Look for the perfect gift
No gratitude to give.
