What happened to daddy
Why isn't he home
Why is he leaving you
All alone

Why are you crying
Where is your smile
Why are you saying
That it'll all be worthwhile

Why are people
Treating me with care
Why do they bother
To stroke my hair
Why are they telling me
That it'll be okay
If I don't know
What happened today

What happened to daddy
Why have you tears in your eyes
Because I saw him last night
He was shining mummy
With God by his side

Why are you still crying mummy
I saw him, I did
Why do you think I won't understand

What happened to daddy
What do you mean
He died


My attempt at poetry. If you end up laughing, I think I'll cry inside. Please criticise politely and point out my flaws because I'm trying to hone my skills, if I have any. Either way, please review.
