Where did our relationship go?
Did I do something wrong?
Don’t you see what’s happening?
Do you even care anymore?

Is it that I don’t call all the time?
Am I not enough?
How did we get here?
Do you even care anymore?

Why did you change all of a sudden?
Aren’t you grateful that you have another chance?
What do we do now?
Do you even care anymore?

What do you think about this?
Should we just give up?
Can you answer any of these?
Do you even care anymore?

MY dad and I used to be close and our relationship went downhill suddenly. These are just a few questions I'd ask him.

I feel the complete same way! :( me and my father used to be so close, but then we got in tons of fight, and we don't even talk anymore. It's completely depressing. I would deff ask the same questions! If you can, check out some of my work. I'd love to hear what another great writer thinks of my work :D
