Dear Dad,
Dear Dad,
 
 
 Well the whole point of this letter is so that I can tell you how 
 I really feel, because I can’t tell you to your face. I’m still mad at you 
 for leaving the family. You put us through emotional and physical 
 problems. My family was torn apart for what you did. Mom cried
 herself to sleep for months, wondering why and how you could do this
 to people that you once said you loved. My sister had to grow up faster
 than necessary, instead of enjoying her high school years. She had to come 
 home and take care of my brother and I. It may seem like he wasn’t 
 as affected as the rest of my family, but to me it seems like he was 
 affected the most. His grades began to drop and he started giving 
 everyone an attitude. Then there is me, your own daughter, who blames
 herself for YOUR own mistakes. I shouldn’t have to deal with this! All
 I think about, every time I replay that day when you left, is why? Why 
 me? Why my family? Why now? I’m only 14 years old, and yet I still
 play that day, when I came home expecting to see you there, but instead, 
 I came home to an empty house. The house was physically empty, but 
 emotionally, it was filled with memories.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Sincerely, 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Your Loving Daughter
