I Have to Go Now

Mommy’s moving out today…
Her bags are on the floor.
Look up from your computer!
Don’t you have anything to say?
You missed her walk out the door.
I guess the game is a better suitor.

Daddy, I’m sorry you’re hurting.
But maybe if you would have noticed
Mommy, she wouldn’t have left.
I can hear your sad crying,
But you didn’t have the remotest
Clue that mommy felt like a reject.

Daddy, my room is packed too now.
My posters are off the walls
And I have to say goodbye to you,
But I don’t think I’ll ever know how.
I know you don’t see the tears that fall,
I’ll always love you daddy, it’s true.

Mommy needs me more now.
She really doesn’t want to leave
But she wasn’t being seen by you
So she has to get out of town.
If she doesn’t, she’ll die from her grief
I’ll miss you daddy, you know it’s true.
