Milk, time for bed,
Homework done, prayer said,
A kiss for mom, but no kiss for dad,
Sometimes it feels like I don't have one; isn't that sad?

He's here and gone; like a sudden rain shower,
He stays here, sometimes, not even an hour,
He has a heart I guess, but I can't wait to see,
Why he hasn't show it to me.

Very gripping, a good use of rhymed verse.
I feel like I can relate to this to an extent as well. :)
