Sixteen years

Without you

Sixteen birthdays

Without you

My family tree

Split in two

Hundreds of questions

Taking over my thoughts

Countless letters

With no reply


I would’ve been apart of a whole

But

I exist

So you packed your bags

Without hesitation


On the second day

The eleventh month

Of my first year

A body

Lies in a ditch

Once covered in wreckage

Now saved by the stars

Without even saying

goodbye

Or hello

To his own daughter


You were nothing to me

I am nothing to what remains of you
