That night it got too much to bear,
You were sick of the bullies at daycare.
You ran to your room, sobbing in despair,
"No one loves me, " you thought , "no one will ever care. "
That's when daddy came in, sat besides you on a chair.
He held your hand and told you , "I care. "
He told you how each soul will, one day, repair.
And how it broke his heart to see you in despair.
He tucked you in with a goodnight kiss,
Not knowing how, after that night, you'll be missed.
For the next morning he found your body hanging ,
From the fan on your room's grey ceiling .
He could feel his heart shattering,
"This can't happen.", he kept muttering .
He loved you more than anything,
You're the only song his soul would sing .
All the things he did for you were beyond compare,
Yet he was left with a note that felt like a nightmare.
Was his love insufficient for you to fare?
For , "No one loves me, " it read, "no one will ever care. "
